In enzymology, a kievitone hydratase (EC 4.2.1.95) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

kievitone hydrate kievitone + H2O

Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, kievitone hydrate, and two products, kievitone and H2O.

This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the hydro-lyases, which cleave carbon-oxygen bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is kievitone-hydrate hydro-lyase (kievitone-forming). Other names in common use include KHase, and kievitone-hydrate hydro-lyase.
