N-acyl-D-aspartate deacylase

Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, a N-acyl-D-aspartate deacylase (Template:EC number) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

N-acyl-D-aspartate + H₂O $\rightleftharpoons$ a carboxylate + D-aspartate

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are N-acyl-D-aspartate and H₂O, whereas its two products are carboxylate and D-aspartate.

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 N-acyl-D-aspartate amidohydrolase. It employs one cofactor, zinc.
