The enzyme hydroxybutyrate-dimer hydrolase (EC 3.1.1.22) catalyzes the reaction
- (R)-3-((R)-3-hydroxybutanoyloxy)butanoate + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] 2 (R)-3-hydroxybutanoate
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on carboxylic ester bonds. The systematic name is (R)-3-((R)-3-hydroxybutanoyloxy)butanoate hydroxybutanoylhydrolase. The enzyme is also called D-(–)-3-hydroxybutyrate-dimer hydrolase. It participates in butanoate metabolism.
