Ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase (RPE) is a member of the ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase family. RPE is the enzyme which converts D-ribulose 5-phosphate into D-xylulose 5-phosphate in Calvin's reductive pentose phosphate cycle. Therefore, the RPE enzyme has one substrate, D-ribulose 5-phosphate, and one product, D-xylulose 5-phosphate. RPE participates in three metabolic pathways: pentose phosphate pathway, pentose and glucuronate interconversions, and carbon fixation.
RPE Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 252 amino acids (1-228) and having a molecular mass of 27.5kDa.RPE is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
| UniProt Protein Function: | RPE: Catalyzes the reversible epimerization of D-ribulose 5- phosphate to D-xylulose 5-phosphate. Belongs to the ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |
