	isoleucine 2-epimerase
Description	isoleucine 2-epimerase (5.1.3.-)
Catalyzed reaction	L-isoleucine = D-allo-isoleucine
Cofactor	Pyridoxal-phosphate.
	The enzyme catalyzed the racemization of a broad spectrum of nonpolar amino acids. In particular, it catalyzed at high rates the epimerization of l-isoleucine to d-allo-isoleucine and d-allo-isoleucine to l-isoleucine.
Organisms	-Eubacteria
Family	isoleucine 2-epimerase (9)
