| Short Name | L-rhamnose_mutarotase |
| description | This entry contains rhamnose mutarotase from Escherichia coli, previously designated YiiL as an uncharacterised protein, and close homologues associated with rhamnose dissimilation operons in other bacterial genomes. Mutarotase is a term for an epimerase that changes optical activity. This enzyme was shown experimentally to interconvert alpha and beta stereoisomers of the pyranose form of L-rhamnose []. The crystal structure of this small (104 amino acid) protein shows a locally asymmetric dimer with active site residues of His, Tyr, and Trp []. |
