In enzymology an urethanase (EC 3.5.1.75) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionurethane + H2O ethanol + CO2 + NH3Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are urethane and H2O whereas its 3 products are ethanol CO2 and NH3.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds specifically in linear amides. The systematic name of this enzyme class is urethane amidohydrolase (decarboxylating).
