IPR004788

Description

IPR004788 is a Ribose 5-phosphate isomerase, type A.

<p>Ribose 5-phosphate isomerase, also known as phosphoriboisomerase, catalyses the reversible conversion of D-ribose 5-phosphate to D-ribulose 5-phosphate, the first step in the non-oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway [[cite:PUB00028856]]. This reaction enables ribose to be synthesized from sugars, as well as the recycling of sugars during the degradation of nucleotides. There are two unrelated types of ribose 5-phosphate isomerases: type A (RpiA) is the most common and is found in most organisms, while type B (RpiB) is restricted to specific eukaryotic and prokaryotic species. Escherichia coli produces both RpiA and RpiB (also known as AlsB), although RpiA accounts for 99% of total RPI enzymes [[cite:PUB00020248]].</p> <p>This entry represents type A (RpiA) enzymes found in eukaryotes (plants, Metazoa and fungi), bacteria and archaea.</p>

GO predictions are based solely on the InterPro-to-GO mappings published by EMBL-EBI, which are in turn based on the mapping of predicted domains to the InterPro dataset. The InterPro-to-GO mapping was last updated on , while the GO metadata was last updated on .

GO term Namespace Name Definition Relationships
Molecular function Ribose-5-phosphate isomerase activity Catalysis of the reaction: D-ribose 5-phosphate = D-ribulose 5-phosphate.
Biological process Pentose-phosphate shunt, non-oxidative branch The branch of the pentose-phosphate shunt which does not involve oxidation reactions. It comprises a series of sugar phosphate interconversions, starting with ribulose 5-P and producing fructose 6-P and glyceraldehyde 3-P.
