L-ribulose-5-phosphate 4-epimerase catalyzes the conversion of L-ribulose 5-phosphate into D-xylulose 5-phosphate. This is the third step of the L-arabinose catabolism. AraD belongs to the class II aldolase family. Binds one zinc ion by subunit. Localized in the cytoplasm; High confidence in function and specificity.

Ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase converts D-ribulose 5-phosphate into D-xylulose 5-phosphate in Pentose phosphate pathway; Adopts a a TIM barrel fold; Localized in the cytoplasm; High confidence in function and specificity.

Transaldolase; Transaldolase is important for the balance of metabolites in the pentose-phosphate pathway; Belongs to the transaldolase family. Type 3B subfamily.

Conserved hypothetical protein; Protein belonging to the DUF718 family, which includes the rhamnose mutarotase YiiL from Escherichia coli; Localized in the cytoplasm.

Conserved protein belonging to the Xylose isomerase-like TIM barrel family; Localized in the cytoplasm; Family membership.

Transketolase (TK) catalyzes the reversible transfer of a two-carbon ketol unit from xylulose 5- phosphate to an aldose receptor, such as ribose 5- phosphate, to form sedoheptulose 7-phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. TK provides a link between the Embden-Meyerhof and pentose-phosphate (Non-oxidative phase) pathways; Uses calcium ion as a cofactor and thiamine diphosphate as prosthetic group; Localized in the cytoplasm; High confidence in function and specificity.

The LacI-type transcriptional regulators are involved in the repression and/or the positive regulation of genes encoding for catabolic enzymes and are important in the coordination of operons; They contain a N-terminal lacI-type HTH domain involved in the binding of the protein to the operator sequences in the DNA and a C- terminal periplasmic binding protein domain that are the primary receptors for chemotaxis and transport of many sugar based solutes that act as inducers; Localized in the cytoplasm; Family membership.

2-Oxoisovalerate dehydrogenase, E1 component; The branched-chain alpha-keto dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the overall conversion of alpha-keto acids to acyl-CoA and CO2. It is involved in valine, leucine and isoleucine biodegradation. This complex contains multiple copies of three enzymatic components: branched-chain alpha-keto acid decarboxylase (E1), lipoamide acyltransferase (E2) and lipoamide dehydrogenase (E3). The E1 component displays a modular architecture. The N-terminal domain is a dehydrogenase and the C-terminal domain belongs to the transketolase family. Both activities [...]
