Difference between Esterase and Functional group

Esterase vs. Functional group

An esterase is a hydrolase enzyme that splits esters into an acid and an alcohol in a chemical reaction with water called hydrolysis. In organic chemistry, functional groups are specific substituents or moieties within molecules that are responsible for the characteristic chemical reactions of those molecules.

Similarities between Esterase and Functional group

Esterase and Functional group have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Acetyl group, Alcohol, Carboxylic acid, Chemical reaction, Ester, Phosphate.
