A new enzyme, D-tagatose 3-epimerase, was found in Pseudomonas sp. ST-24 during the course of studies on D-sorbose fermentation. This enzyme catalyzes epimerization keto-sugars, for example between and D-sorbose, D-fructose D-psicose. It shown that this epimerizes configuration at C-3 position these substrates. epimerase didn't act 6-phosphate D-ribulose 5-phosphate.
