| Accepted name: |
2-aminohexano-6-lactam racemase |
| Reaction: |
(S)-2-aminohexano-6-lactam = (R)-2-aminohexano-6-lactam |
| Glossary: |
(S)-2-aminohexano-6-lactam = L-lysine 1,6-lactam |
| Other name(s): |
α-amino-ε-caprolactam racemase |
| Systematic name: |
2-aminohexano-6-lactam racemase |
| Comments: |
Contains pyridoxal 5′-phosphate. Also racemises 2-aminopentano-5-lactam (α-amino-δ-valerolactam) and 2-amino-4-thiahexano-6-lactam (where S replaces CH2 of C-4). It does not catalyse the racemisation of α-amino acids but has some transaminase activity with them. |
