Structure-based prediction and identification of 4-epimerization activity of phosphate sugars in class II aldolases
Abstract Sugar 4-epimerization reactions are important for the production of rare sugars and their derivatives, which have various potential industrial applications. For example, the production of tagatose, a functional sweetener, from fructose by sugar 4-epimerization is currently constrained becau...

Abstract Sugar 4-epimerization reactions are important for the production of rare sugars and their derivatives, which have various potential industrial applications. For example, the production of tagatose, a functional sweetener, from fructose by sugar 4-epimerization is currently constrained because a fructose 4-epimerase does not exist in nature. We found that class II d-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (FbaA) catalyzed the 4-epimerization of d-fructose-6-phosphate (F6P) to d-tagatose-6-phosphate (T6P) based on the prediction via structural comparisons with epimerase and molecular docking and the identification of the condensed products of C3 sugars.
