ENTRY       EC 3.5.1.64
NAME        N(alpha)-benzyloxycarbonyl-leucine hydrolase
CLASS       Hydrolases
            Acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds, other than peptide bonds
            In linear amides
SYSNAME     N(alpha)-Benzyloxycarbonyl-L-leucine urethanehydrolase
REACTION    N(alpha)-Benzyloxycarbonyl-L-leucine + H2O = Benzyl alcohol +
            CO2 + L-Leucine
SUBSTRATE   N(alpha)-Benzyloxycarbonyl-L-leucine
            H2O
            N(alpha)-t-Butoxycarbonyl-L-leucine
PRODUCT     Benzyl alcohol
            CO2
            L-Leucine
COMMENT     Also acts on N(alpha)-t-butoxycarbonyl-L-leucine, and, more
            slowly, on the corresponding derivatives of L-aspartate,
            L-methionine, L-glutamate and L-alanine. cf. EC 3.5.1.58.
