What enzymes are involved in dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis?

Specific enzymes catalyze each reaction. For example, DNA polymerase catalyzes dehydration synthesis to build DNA from nucleotides, while amylase catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into glucose. Each macromolecule type has its own family of enzymes for synthesis and breakdown.
