Mandelate racemase (EC 5.1.2.2) is a bacterial enzyme which catalyzes the interconversion of the enantiomers of mandelate via an enol intermediate. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- (S)-mandelate (R)-mandelate
(R)-mandelateIt is a member of the enolase superfamily of enzymes, along with muconate lactonizing enzyme and enolase.
