kutsealases
Kutsealases are a proposed family of hydrolytic enzymes described in speculative biochemistry as catalysts that cleave kutseal, a hypothetical biopolymer thought to be present in certain synthetic or primitive biological systems. The name combines kutse, the substrate, with the standard -ase suffix used for enzymes.
The term appears mainly in fictional or thought-experiment contexts rather than formal biochemical databases. As such,
Proposed properties of kutsealases span a range of hypothetical mechanisms. Some models assign them to serine
Substrates and specificity are likewise defined in speculative terms. Kutsealases are predicted to target bonds within
Biological role and applications in these contexts are often imagined rather than demonstrated. Kutsealases are used
