| Accepted name: |
mannose 2-epimerase |
| Reaction: |
β-D-mannopyranose = β-D-glucopyranose |
| Systematic name: |
β-D-mannopyranose 2-epimerase |
| Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from multiple bacterial species, catalyses the interconversion between β-D-glucopyranose and β-D-mannopyranose through proton abstraction-addition at the C2 position. |
