  Lyase - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In biochemistry, a lyase is an enzyme that catalyzes the breaking of various chemical bonds by means other than hydrolysis and oxidation, often forming a new double bond or a new ring structure.
Lyases differ from other enzymes in that they only require one substrate for the reaction in one direction, but two substrates for the reverse reaction.
Systematic names are formed as "substrate group lyase." Common names include decarboxylase, dehydratase, aldolase, etc. When the reverse reaction is more important, synthase may be used in the name.

 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase deficiency - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase deficiency also referred to as HMG-CoA lyase deficiency, is an uncommon inherited disorder in which the body cannot properly process the amino acid leucine.

 Phenylalanine ammonia lyase activity and anthocyanin accumulation in the aleurone tissue   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The phenylalanine ammonia lyase activity in the developing aleurone tissue of C C kernels was investigated in order to see whether there is any correlation between anthocyanin accumulation and phenylalanine ammonia lyase levels.
Phenylalanine ammonia lyase was assayed (Zuker, 1965 and Saunders et al., 1975 with certain modifications) in acetone powder extracts of fresh aleurone tissue (25mM sodium borate buffer pH 8.8 with polyvinylpolypyrrolidone, mg/mg).
It was also observed that phenylalanine ammonia lyase activity was localized primarily in aleurone (84%) compared to the endosperm (5%) and the embryo (11%) tissue.

Sphingosine-1-phosphate is irreversibly degraded by the highly conserved enzyme sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase.
In this study, regulation of sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase gene expression was investigated in Caenorhabditis elegans, where lyase expression is spatially restricted to cells of the developing and adult gut and is essential for normal development.
Additionally, we demonstrate that the human sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase gene is regulated by a GATA transcription factor.
