In enzymology, a hippurate hydrolase ( EC 3.5.1.32) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- hippurate + H2O benzoate + glycine
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are hippurate and H2O, whereas its two products are benzoate and glycine.
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-benzoylamino-acid amidohydrolase. This enzyme participates in phenylalanine metabolism.
Hippurate hydrolysis test is used in the presumptive identification of Gardnerella vaginalis, Campylobacter jejuni, Listeria monocytogenes and group B streptococci by detecting the ability of the organism to hydrolyze hippurate. [1]
