Английская Википедия:Glucose-6-phosphate 1-epimerase
Шаблон:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, a glucose-6-phosphate 1-epimerase (Шаблон:EnzExplorer) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- alpha-D-glucose 6-phosphate <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> beta-D-glucose 6-phosphate
Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, alpha-D-glucose 6-phosphate, and one product, beta-D-glucose 6-phosphate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically those racemases and epimerases acting on carbohydrates and derivatives. The systematic name of this enzyme class is D-glucose-6-phosphate 1-epimerase. This enzyme participates in glycolysis / gluconeogenesis.
Structural studies
As of late 2013, 3 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes Шаблон:PDB link, Шаблон:PDB link, and Шаблон:PDB link.
