Enzyme Information

5.1.1.15
2-aminohexano-6-lactam racemase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q7M181
(S)-2-aminohexano-6-lactam = (R)-2-aminohexano-6-lactam.
-!- Also interconverts 2-aminopentano-5-lactam (alpha-amino-delta- valerolactam) and 2-amino-4-thiahexano-6-lactam (where S replaces CH(2) of C-4). -!- It does not catalyze the racemisation of alpha-amino acids but has some transaminase activity with them.
