[edit]

This suffix was comes from the greek word ἄσις Greek διαστασις, which means slime or mud, due to the way that an enzymes attaches itself to the substance it is helping break down.

i doubt this etymology. διάστασις means "separation" = διά + στάσις. the use in modern biochemistry comes from émile duclaux, who proposed ending -ase to form terms for enzymes coming from his own word coinage - term diastase (< diastasis) for sugar cleaving enzymes in traité de microbiologie, vol. 2, 1899, pp. 9.
