D-xylose isomerase (XylA)

Accepted Name
Xylose isomerase.
Alternative Name(s)
D-xylose ketoisomerase.
Reaction catalysed
D-xylopyranose <=> D-xylulose
Cofactor(s)
Mg(2+).
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme catalyzes the interconversion of aldose and ketose sugars with broad substrate specificity.
  • The enzyme binds the closed form of its sugar substrate (in the case of glucose, only the alpha anomer) and catalyzes ring opening to generate a form of open-chain conformation that is coordinated to one of the metal sites.
  • Isomerization proceeds via a hydride-shift mechanism.
