    Usage notes

    * The polysemic term (term) has been superseded by the more specific terms dehydrogenase and dehydratase since its proscription by the , Report of the Committee on Enzymes (1961), chapter 6, page 34
    ?The name ‘dehydrase’, which has been used for both dehydrogenating and dehydrating enzymes, will not be used. ‘Dehydrogenase’ will be used for the former and ‘dehydratase’ for the latter.
