Background
This gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the epimerization of hexose sugars such as glucose and galactose. The encoded protein is expressed in the cytoplasm and has a preference for galactose. The encoded protein may be required for normal galactose metabolism by maintaining the equilibrium of alpha and beta anomers of galactose.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009],
Function
catalytic activity:Alpha-D-glucose = beta-D-glucose.,function:Mutarotase converts alpha-aldose to the beta-anomer. It is active on D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-xylose, D-galactose, maltose and lactose.,pathway:Carbohydrate metabolism; hexose metabolism.,similarity:Belongs to the aldose epimerase family.,subunit:Monomer.,
Protein name
Aldose 1-epimerase (EC 5.1.3.3) (Galactose mutarotase)
