Enzymes: transferases
Examples:

                                   3. Hydrolysis reactions
Water is used to split the single molecule into two molecules

Enzymes: hydrolases    - peptidases                            -
- esterases
glycosidases
Example:

                           4. Nonhydrolytic cleavage reactions

Split or lysis of a substrate, generating a double bond in a nonhydrolytic (without
water), nonoxidative elimination.
Enzymes: lyases
