Extra Details:
Catalyzes the reversible epimerization between 5-keto-L-gluconate (5-dehydro-L-gluconate) and D-tagaturonate, and thus probably functions in a myo-inositol degradation pathway together with IolG, IolM and IolN. Is not active on the enantiomer 5-keto-D-gluconate. Was also shown to be a nonphosphorylated sugar isomerase with broad substrate specificity in vitro. Is able to catalyze the reversible C3-epimerization of L-ribulose to L-xylulose, D-ribulose to D-xylulose, D-psicose to D-fructose, and D-tagatose to D-sorbose, with a substrate preference for ketopentoses rather than ketohexoses. Also catalyzes the aldose-ketose isomerization reaction from either D-erythrose or D-threose to D-erythrulose. Exhibits no activity for C4-epimerization of D-tagatose to D-fructose. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-270 from Thermotoga maritima 5-keto-L-gluconate epimerase, fused to 10X His-Tag at N-terminal and Myc-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in E.coli.
