TPI catalyzes the transfer of a hydrogen atom from carbon 1 to carbon 2, an intramolecular reaction<ref | TPI catalyzes the transfer of a hydrogen atom from carbon 1 to carbon 2, an intramolecular reaction<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_reduction oxidation-reduction</ref>. This isomerization of a ketose to an aldose proceeds through an ''cis''-enediol(ate) intermediate. This isomerization proceeds without any cofactors and the enzyme confers a 10<sup>9</sup> rate enhancement relative to the nonenzymatic reaction involving a chemical base (acetate ion).<ref>PMID:2043623</ref> | ||
