Retinal isomerase (EC 5.2.1.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the isomerisation of all-trans-retinal in the eye into 11-cis-retinal which is the form that most opsins bind.
- all-trans-retinal 11-cis-retinal
Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, all-trans-retinal, and one product, 11-cis-retinal.
This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically cis-trans isomerases. Its systematic name is all-trans-retinal 11-cis-trans-isomerase. Other names are retinene isomerase, and retinoid isomerase. This enzyme participates in the retinol metabolism.
