Triose phosphate isomerase (TIM)<ref>PMID:16511037</ref><ref>PMID:8061610</ref> (PDB [[1wyi]] and [[1hti]]) is a crucial enzyme in the glycolytic pathway. <scene name='Christian_Krenk_Sandbox/Nc_rainbow/1'>TIM</scene> reversibly converts the aldose Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP) to the ketose Dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP). The interconversion proceeds by an enediol intermediate. Triose phosphate isomerase is not directly regulated, but the enzyme two steps before it in the glycolytic pathway, phosphofructokinase, is a heavily regulated, irreversible enzyme.

An interesting part of the enzyme is the <scene name='Christian_Krenk_Sandbox/Flexible_loop/1'>flexible loop</scene> that stabilizes the enediol-like transition state. The flexible loop (residues 167-176)<ref>PMID:2204418</ref> closes over the active site like a hinged lid when substrate is bound, thus preventing phosphate from leaving. A four-residue segment of the loop H-bonds with the phosphate group of the substrate.<ref name="book" /> Without the loop, the enediol intermediate would eliminate phosphate, with the end products being inorganic phosphate and toxic methylglyoxal.<ref name="book" />
