In [[enzymology]], a '''5'-acylphosphoadenosine hydrolase''' ({{EC number|3.6.1.20}}) is an [[enzyme]] that [[catalysis|catalyzes]] the [[chemical reaction]]

:5'-acylphosphoadenosine + H<sub>2</sub>O <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> AMP + a carboxylate

Thus, the two [[substrate (biochemistry)|substrates]] of this enzyme are [[5'-acylphosphoadenosine]] and [[water|H<sub>2</sub>O]], whereas its two [[product (chemistry)|products]] are [[adenosine monophosphate|AMP]] and [[carboxylate]].

This enzyme belongs to the family of [[hydrolase]]s, specifically those acting on acid anhydrides in phosphorus-containing anhydrides. The systematic name of this enzyme class is '''5'-acylphosphoadenosine acylhydrolase'''. This enzyme is also called '''5-phosphoadenosine hydrolase'''. This enzyme participates in [[purine metabolism]].
