In enzymology a 4-hydroxyproline epimerase (EC 5.1.1.8) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactiontrans-4-hydroxy-L-proline cis-4-hydroxy-D-prolineHence this enzyme has one substrate trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline and one product cis-4-hydroxy-D-proline.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 4-hydroxyproline 2-epimerase.
