Wikipedia
Isomerase
Isomerases are a general class of enzymes that convert a molecule from one isomer to another. Isomerases facilitate intramolecular rearrangements in which bonds are broken and formed. The general form of such a reaction is as follows: A–B → B–A There is only one substrate yielding one product. This product has the same molecular formula as the substrate but differs in bond connectivity or spatial arrangement. Isomerases catalyze reactions across many biological processes, such as in glycolysis and carbohydrate metabolism.

isomerase
Isomerase is a type of enzyme that catalyzes the structural rearrangement within a molecule, transforming it into an isomer. It plays a crucial role in various biological processes by converting molecules into different forms without changing their constituent atoms. Essentially, isomerase facilitates transformations within a single molecule, often creating a structural or spatial change.

Isomerase
In biochemistry, an isomerase is an enzyme that catalyzes the structural rearrangement of isomers. Isomerases thus catalyze reactions of the form where B is an isomer of A.
