In enzymology, a maleate isomerase (EC 5.2.1.1), or maleate cis-tran isomerase, is a member of the Asp/Glu racemase superfamily discovered in bacteria. It is responsible for catalyzing cis-trans isomerization of the C2-C3 double bond in maleate to produce fumarate,[1] which is a critical intermediate in citric acid cycle.[2] The presence of an exogenous mercaptan is required for catalysis to happen.[3]
Illustration of the overall isomerization catalyzed by maleate isomerase
Maleate isomerase participates in butanoate metabolism and nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism.[4] It is an essential enzyme for the last step of metabolic degradation pathway of nicotinic acid. Recently, maleate isomerase has been an industrial target for degradation of tobacco waste.[5][6] It is also got attention for its involvement in aspartic acid and maleic acid production.[7][8][9]
Maleate isomerase has been utilized by multiple bacteria species, including Pseudomonas fluorescens,[3]Alcaligenes faecalis,[10]Bacillus stearothermophilus,[11]Serratia marcescens[8], Pseudomonas putida[12] and Nocardia farcinica.[1][5] The enzyme has a molecular weight of 74,000 and a turnover number of 1,800 moles per mole of protein per min.[3]
