MCQ
Enzymes that catalyse inter$-$conversion of optical, geometrical or positional isomers are:
  • A
    Ligases
  • B
    Lyases
  • C
    Hydrolases
  • Isomerases

Answer

Correct option: D.
Isomerases
Ligases are the enzymes which catalyze joining together of two $\text{DNA}$ segments.
Lyases catalyze the breaking of chemical bonds without hydrolysis while hydrolases catalyze hydrolytic cleavage of bonds.
Isomerases catalyze interconversion of optical, geometrical or positional isomers of a particular enzyme.
