5-(carboxyamino)imidazole ribonucleotide mutase
In enzymology, a 5-imidazole ribonucleotide mutase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, 5-carboxyamino-1-imidazole, and one product, 5-amino-1-imidazole-4-carboxylate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically those intramolecular transferases transferring other groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 5-carboxyamino-1-imidazole carboxymutase. Other names in common use include N5-CAIR mutase, PurE, N5-carboxyaminoimidazole ribonucleotide mutase, and class I PurE.
