In enzymology, an UDP-galactopyranose mutase (EC 5.4.99.9) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- UDP-D-galactopyranose UDP-D-galacto-1,4-furanose
Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, UDP-D-galactopyranose, and one product, UDP-D-galacto-1,4-furanose.
This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically those intramolecular transferases transferring other groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is UDP-D-galactopyranose furanomutase.
Structural studies
As of late 2007, 5 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1I8T, 1V0J, 1WAM, 2BI7, and 2BI8.
