In enzymology an isocitrate epimerase (EC 5.1.2.6) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction(1R2S)-1-hydroxypropane-123-tricarboxylate (1S2S)-1-hydroxypropane-123-tricarboxylateHence this enzyme has one substrate (1R2S)-1-hydroxypropane-123-tricarboxylate and one product (1S2S)-1-hydroxypropane-123-tricarboxylate.This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases specifically those racemases and epimerases acting on hydroxy acids and derivatives.
