We are deeply saddened by the passing of Amos Bairoch (1957–2025), the creator of PROSITE. We wish to dedicate our latest paper, published shortly before his death, to him. He will always be a source of inspiration to us.
Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends, and to all those who had the privilege of working with him. Rest in peace, Amos. Your work will live on long after you are gone.
Amos Bairoch

Data class Domain;
Predictors PROSITE; PS51415; XYLOSE_ISOMERASE
Name Xylose isomerase family
Function Xylose isomerase (EC 5.3.1.5) is an enzyme found in microorganisms and plants which catalyzes the interconversion of the aldo sugars D-xylose or D-glucose to the keto sugars D-xylulose and D-fructose. The catalytic activity requires magnesium, cobalt or manganese.
Scope(s) Eukaryota
Bacteria
Example(s) Q93RJ9; Q9FKK7;
