In enzymology a galactose-6-phosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.26) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionD-galactose 6-phosphate D-tagatose 6-phosphateHence this enzyme has one substrate D-galactose 6-phosphate and one product D-tagatose 6-phosphate.This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases specifically those intramolecular oxidoreductases interconverting aldoses and ketoses. The systematic name of this enzyme class is D-galactose-6-phosphate aldose-ketose-isomerase.
