Type: | Family | Name: | Aldose 1-/Glucose-6-phosphate 1-epimerase |
Description: | Aldose 1-epimerase () (mutarotase) is the enzyme responsible for the anomeric interconversion of D-glucose and other aldoses between their alpha- and beta-forms. Glucose-6-phosphate 1-epimerase () has been shown to catalyse the interconversion between the alpha and beta anomers from at least three hexose 6-phosphate sugars (Glc6P, Gal6P, and Man6P) []. | Short Name: | Aldose_1/G6P_1-epimerase |
