1,4-Lactonase is the Ca2+-requiring short lactone-specific hydrolase. It hydrolyzes 4-8 carbon 1,4-lactones with water, releasing the corresponding 4-hydroxy acid; it does not act on simple aliphatic esters, acetylcholine, sugar lactones or 3-hydroxy-4-butyrolactone. It occurs in viruses and cellular organisms.
