C12Y ENZYMES
Description
C12Y covers enzyme classifications organized by enzymatic function and reaction type, enabling detailed categorization of biocatalysts across industrial and research applications. This subclass structures enzyme patents according to the Enzyme Commission (EC) classification system, facilitating precise identification of specific enzyme activities such as oxidoreductases, transferases, hydrolases, and ligases. It encompasses enzymes used in biotechnology processes, pharmaceutical synthesis, food production, diagnostics, and genetic engineering, as well as novel enzymes derived from natural or engineered sources. The classification distinguishes between enzyme types by catalytic mechanism rather than source organism, making it essential for patent professionals navigating enzyme-related inventions in biochemical and biotechnological fields.
