In enzymology a cellobiose epimerase (EC 5.1.3.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactioncellobiose D-glucosyl-D-mannoseHence this enzyme has one substrate cellobiose and one product D-glucosyl-D-mannose.This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases specifically those racemases and epimerases acting on carbohydrates and their derivatives. The systematic name of this enzyme class is cellobiose 2-epimerase.
