  1. What do Oxidoreductases do?
    Transfer of electrons (hydride ions or H atoms)
  2. Transferases
    Group transfer reactions
  3. Hydrolases
    Hydrolysis reactions (transfer of functional groups to water)
  4. Lyases
    Addition of groups to double bonds, or the formation of double bonds by removal of groups
  5. Isomerases
    Transfer of groups within molecules to yield isomoreic forms
  6. Ligases
