The complete contents of Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992 (plus subsequent supplements and other changes) are listed below in enzyme number order giving just the recommended name. Each entry provides a link to details of that enzyme. Alternatively if looking for a specific reaction used in the classification of enzymes the broad outline defined by the first two numbers are given below. Each of these subclass entries is linked to a location where the category is subdivided to sub-subclasses. These in turn are linked to a list of recommended names for each enzyme in the sub-subclass.

List of Recommended Names for Enzymes

The common names of all listed enzymes are listed below, along with their EC numbers. Where an enzyme has been deleted or transferred to another EC number, this information is also indicated. Each list is linked to either separate entries for each entry or to files with up to 50 enzymes in each file.
