EC	5.1.3.44
Accepted name:	mannose 2-epimerase
Reaction:	β-D-mannopyranose = β-D-glucopyranose
Systematic name:	β-D-mannopyranose 2-epimerase
Comments:	The enzyme, characterized from multiple bacterial species, catalyses the interconversion between β-D-glucopyranose and β-D-mannopyranose through proton abstraction-addition at the C2 position.
