'Triose Phosphate Isomerase
Overview
(TPI or TIM) which catalyzes the reversible interconversion of the triose phosphate isomers dihydroxyacetone phosphate and D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, an essential process in the glycolytic pathway.
Mechanism
TPI catalyzes the transfer of a hydrogen atom from carbon 1 to carbon 2, an intramolecular oxidation-reduction. This isomerization of a ketose to an aldose proceeds through an enediol intermediate.<Biochemistry 6th Edition>
Acid Base Catalysis
Glutamate 165 plays the role of the general acid-base catalyst in a proton abstraction mechanism as it abstractluts a proton from carebon 1, which then donates it to carbon 2. Glutamate 165 requires Histidine 95, the general acid
