Comments

According to the literature [2] & [7], this enzyme catalyzes two epimerization reactions, which are composed of four isomerization (shift of double-bond position) as follows:
Here, Asp170 (of 1dzr;PDB) modulates the activity of His63, whereas Asn50 modulates the activity of Tyr133.
(A) Shift of double-bond position from C4=O4 to C4=C5 (Isomerization):
(A1) His63 acts as a general base to deprotonate C5 atom, forming an enolate intermediate.
(A2) Lys73 stabilizes the negative charge on the O4 enolate intermediate.
(B) Shift of double-bond position from C4=C5 to C4=O4 (Isomerization):
(B1) Tyr133 acts as a general acid to protonate C5 atom from the opposite direction.
(B2) Here, there must be proton shuttle for His63 and Tyr133, since they will have to act as a general base and a general acid, respectively, in the next reaction. For Tyr133, a water bound to the residue might provide a new proton. Also for His63, a water molecule, which is hydrogen bonded to this residue, forms a wide network, suggesting a proton shuttle for it.
(C) Shift of double-bond position from C4=O4 to C4=C3 (Isomerization):
(C1) His63 acts as a general base to deprotonate C3 atom, forming an enolate intermediate.
(C2) Lys73 stabilizes the negative charge on the O4 enolate intermediate.
(D) Shift of double-bond position from C4=C3 to C4=O4 (Isomerization):
(D1) Tyr133 acts as a general acid to protonate C5 atom through a water from the opposite direction.
(D2) Here, there must be proton shuttle for His63 and Tyr133, since they will have to act as a general base and a general acid, respectively, for a next substrate. For Tyr133, a water bound to the residue might provide a new proton. Also for His63, a water molecule, which is hydrogen bonded to this residue, forms a wide network, suggesting a proton shuttle for it.
