The name of this superfamily has been modified since the most recent official CATH+ release (v4_3_0). At the point of the last release, this superfamily was named:

"
L-fucose/L-arabinose isomerase, C-terminal
".

Functional Families

Overview of the Structural Clusters (SC) and Functional Families within this CATH Superfamily. Clusters with a representative structure are represented by a filled circle.

Superfamily EC Annotations

Note: the EC figure is not being displayed for this superfamily as there are more than 100 different EC terms.

There are 2 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
L-fucose isomerase. [EC: 5.3.1.25]
L-fucopyranose = L-fuculose.
  • The enzyme binds the closed form of the sugar and catalyzes ring opening to generate a form of open-chain conformation that facilitates the isomerization reaction, which proceeds via an ene- diol mechanism.
  • The enzyme from Escherichia coli can also convert D-arabinose to D-ribulose.
  • The enzyme from the thermophilic bacterium Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus also converts D-altrose to D-psicose and L-galactose to L-tagatose.

D-arabinose isomerase. [EC: 5.3.1.3]
D-arabinose = D-ribulose.
  • The enzyme binds the closed form of the sugar and catalyzes ring opening to generate a form of open-chain conformation that facilitates the isomerization reaction, which proceeds via an ene- diol mechanism.
  • The enzyme catalyzes the aldose-ketose isomerization of several sugars.
  • Most enzymes also catalyze the reaction of EC 5.3.1.25.
  • The enzyme from the bacterium Falsibacillus pallidus also converts D-altrose to D-psicose.
  • Cf. EC 5.3.1.4.
