In enzymology, a protein-serine epimerase (EC 5.1.1.16) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

[protein]-L-serine [protein]-D-serine

Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, [protein]-L-serine, and one product, [protein]-D-serine.

This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically those racemases and epimerases acting on amino acids and derivatives. The systematic name of this enzyme class is [protein]-serine epimerase. This enzyme is also called protein-serine racemase.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, only one structure has been solved for this class of enzymes, with the PDB accession code 1WTC.

Isomerases are a general class of enzymes that convert a molecule from one isomer to another. Isomerases facilitate intramolecular rearrangements in which bonds are broken and formed. The general form of such a reaction is as follows:

Methylmalonyl CoA epimerase is an enzyme involved in fatty acid catabolism that is encoded in human by the "MCEE" gene located on chromosome 2. It is routinely and incorrectly labeled as "methylmalonyl-CoA racemase". It is not a racemase because the CoA moiety has 5 other stereocenters.
