Observations of reaction intermediates and the mechanism of aldose-ketose interconversion by D-xylose isomerase. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1990
Crystallographic studies of D-xylose isomerase (D-xylose ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.5) incubated to equilibrium with substrate/product mixtures of xylose and xylulose show electron density for a bound intermediate. The accumulation of this bound intermediate shows that the mechanism is a non-Michaelis type. Carrell et al. [Carrell, H. L., Glusker, J. P.,

Methionine Salvage Enzyme Uses a Unique Mechanism to Overcome a Challenging Aldose-Ketose Isomerization. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Am Chem Soc
The enzyme-catalyzed interconversion of aldoses and ketoses historically involves one of two mechanisms, both of which require an aldehyde form of the substrate.

Mechanism for aldose-ketose interconversion by d-xylose isomerase involving ring opening followed by a 1,2-hydride shift

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 1990
The active site and mechanism of D-xylose isomerase have been probed by determination of the crystal structures of the enzyme bound to various substrates, inhibitors and cations. Ring-opening is an obligatory first step of the reaction and is believed to be the rate-determining step for the aldose to ketose conversion. The structure of a complex with a

Interaction of Organogermanium Compounds with Saccharides in Aqueous Solutions: Promotion of Aldose-to-ketose Isomerization and Its Molecular Mechanism

open access: yesJournal of Applied Glycoscience, 2023
This review discusses sugar isomerization with organogermanium compounds. Organogermanium compounds markedly increase the aldose-ketose (glucose-fructose or lactose-lactulose) isomerization ratio, double the initial reaction rate, and significantly ...

Biosynthesis of Inner Core Lipopolysaccharide in Enteric Bacteria Identification and Characterization of a Conserved Phosphoheptose Isomerase (*)

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
The lpcA locus has been identified in Escherichia coli K12 novobiocin-supersensitive mutants that produce a short lipopolysaccharide (LPS) core which lacks glyceromannoheptose and terminal hexoses.

An Organogermanium Compound Enhances the Initial Reaction Rate of Alkaline Isomerization of an Aldose into a Ketose through Enediol Complex Formation

open access: yesJournal of Applied Glycoscience, 2021
We previously demonstrated that the organogermanium compound 3-(trihydroxygermyl)propanoic acid (THGP) enhances the enzymatic and alkaline isomerization of an aldose to a ketose through cis-diol complex formation by multiple mechanisms.

Methylthio-D-ribose-1-Phosphate Isomerase Uses a Novel Mechanism for Aldose–Ketose Isomerization

open access: yes
The enzyme-catalyzed interconversion of aldoses and ketoses historically involves one of two mechanisms, both of which require an aldehyde form of the substrate. Methylthio-D-ribose-1-phosphate (MTR1P) isomerase (MtnA), which functions in the methionine-salvage pathway, poses a challenge to this canon because its substrate cannot readily access such a ...

Formation of Three Selected AGEs and their Corresponding Intermediates in Aldose- and Ketose-lysine Systems

open access: yeseFood, 2020
Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) could be formed with a -dicarbonyl compounds as intermediates; however, simultaneous determination of AGES as well as their precursors and intermediates have rarely been mentioned, so as to investigate the reaction.
