DEFINITION

hydrolysis is a chemical reaction in which water is used to break down the

bonds of a particular substance. In biotechnology and as far as living
organisms are concerned, these substances are often polymers.

1. SALT
Hydrolysis occurs when salt
from a weak base or acid
dissolves in liquid.
2. ACID
Water can act as an acid or a

This reaction is very similar to the

What is a hydrolysis
reaction?
 8

In a hydrolysis reaction involving an ester link, such as that found

between two amino acids in a protein, the products that result include
one that receives the hydroxyl (OH) group from the water molecule
and another that becomes a carboxylic acid with the addition of the
remaining proton (H+).

Hydrolysis reactions in living organisms are performed with the

help of catalysis by a class of enzymes known as hydrolases.
