In enzymology an UDP-glucose 46-dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.76) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionUDP-glucose UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose + H2OHence this enzyme has one substrate UDP-glucose and two products UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose and H2O.This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases specifically the hydro-lyases which cleave carbon-oxygen bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is UDP-glucose 46-hydro-lyase (UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose-forming).
