            Tabunase
            Somanase
            Organophosphorus acid anhydrolase
CLASS       Hydrolases
            Acting on ester bonds
            Phosphoric triester hydrolases
SYSNAME     Diisopropyl-fluorophosphate fluorohydrolase
REACTION    Diisopropyl fluorophosphate + H2O = Diisopropyl phosphate +
            Fluoride
SUBSTRATE   Diisopropyl fluorophosphate
            H2O
PRODUCT     Diisopropyl phosphate
            Fluoride
INHIBITOR   Chelating agent
COFACTOR    Divalent cation
COMMENT     Acts on phosphorus anhydride bonds (such as phosphorus-halide and
            phosphorus-cyanide) in organophosphorus compounds (including)
            'nerve gases'). Inhibited by chelating agents; requires divalent
            cations. Related to EC 3.1.8.1. Previously listed as EC 3.8.2.1.
