Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, L-rhamnose, and one product, L-rhamnulose.

This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically those intramolecular oxidoreductases interconverting aldoses and ketoses. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-rhamnose aldose-ketose-isomerase. Other names in common use include rhamnose isomerase, and L-rhamnose ketol-isomerase. This enzyme participates in fructose and mannose metabolism.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, 6 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1D8W, 1DE5, 1DE6, 2HCV, 2I56, and 2I57.

gollark: Well, various possibilities exist:- add "exist again" after "exit the zzcxz" - this could take you to a new area with more doors or something- somehow add a mysterious button on the wall of one of the halls which switches the door to osmarks.net mode (somehow²)- "go in an anomalous direction" (or somehow "go up"/"go down") in the initial room- in the bee room, one series of choices could allow access to it- the "sandy ground" area after going backward
gollark: Yes, that is what I was wondering.
gollark: Hmm, where would it actually go? I guess I could repurpose one of the doors.
gollark: Other osmarks.net server room™ possibilities: loud VRRRRRRRRR noises (unless it's liquid-cooled); blinky lights; maintenance robots; tunnels running to other places (with network cables).
gollark: It would have ominous server racks with cooling systems and power/data cables.
