D-arabino-hex-3-ulose-6-phosphate isomerase
This enzyme, along with EC 4.1.2.43, 3-hexulose-6-phosphate synthase, plays a key role in the ribulose-monophosphate cycle of formaldehyde fixation, which is present in many microorganisms that are capable of utilizing C1-compounds [1]. The hyperthermophilic and anaerobic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 constitutively produces a bifunctional enzyme that sequentially catalyses the reactions of EC 4.1.2.43 (3-hexulose-6-phosphate synthase) and this enzyme [4].
