Application
Phosphoriboisomerase is used to study the ribulose monophosphate pathway. Phosphoriboisomerase from spinach is used in enzyme assays to convert ribose 5-phosphate to ribulose 5-phosphate.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Phosphoriboisomerase is responsible for the converstion of ribose 5-phosphate to ribulose 5-phosphate.
Other Notes
One unit will convert 1.0 μmole of D-ribose 5-phosphate to D-ribulose 5-phosphate per min at pH 7.7 at 30 °C.

This study reports syntheses of d-allose 6-phosphate (All6P), D-allulose (or D-psicose) 6-phosphate (Allu6P), and seven D-ribose 5-phosphate isomerase (Rpi) inhibitors. The inhibitors were designed as analogues of the 6-carbon high-energy intermediate postulated for the All6P to Allu6P isomerization reaction (Allpi

Two previously unreported inborn errors of metabolism occur in the reversible part of the pentose phosphate pathway. Deficiency of ribose-5-phosphate isomerase has been described in one patient who suffered from a progressive leukoencephalopathy and developmental delay. Transaldolase deficiency has been

Rare sugars are used for many industrial and medical purposes and are produced by the interconversion between aldoses and ketoses catalyzed by sugar and sugar-phosphate isomerases. Recently, Clostridium thermocellum d-ribose-5-phosphate isomerase (CTRPI), an aldose-ketose isomerase, was cloned in order to

The activity of ribose-5-phosphate isomerases (RpiB) from Clostridium difficile for D-ribose isomerization was optimal at pH 7.5 and 40 degrees C, while that from Thermotoga maritima for L-talose isomerization was optimal at pH 8.0 and 70 degrees C. C. difficile

Ribose-5-phosphate isomerase is an enzyme that catalyzes the interconversion of ribose-5-phosphate and ribulose-5-phosphate. This family of enzymes naturally occurs in two distinct classes, RpiA and RpiB, which play an important role in the pentose phosphate pathway and nucleotide and co-factor
