In enzymology, a thiocyanate isomerase (EC 5.99.1.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- benzyl isothiocyanate [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] benzyl thiocyanate
Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, benzyl isothiocyanate, and one product, benzyl thiocyanate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically those other isomerases sole sub-subclass for isomerases that do not belong in the other subclasses. The systematic name of this enzyme class is benzyl-thiocyanate isomerase. This enzyme is also called isothiocyanate isomerase.
