There are six different types of enzymes. Oxidoreductases manage redox reactions, transferring electrons between molecules. Transferases are responsible for moving functional groups from one molecule to another. Hydrolases are able to break chemical bonds, while lyases create new bonds by removing or adding functional groups. Isomerases rearrange atoms within a molecule, and ligases help join two separate molecules together.
