Catalysis of the reaction: (S)(+)-allantoin = (R)(-)-allantoin. Catalysis of the reaction: 16-alpha-hydroxysteroid = 16-beta-hydroxysteroid. Catalysis of the reaction: (R)-2-methyl-3-oxopropanoyl-CoA = (S)-2-methyl-3-oxopropanoyl-CoA. Catalysis of a reaction that alters the configuration of one or more chiral centers in a carbohydrate molecule. Catalysis of a reaction that alters the configuration of one or more chiral centers in a hydroxy acid molecule. Catalysis of a reaction that alters the configuration of one or more chiral centers in an amino acid. Catalysis of a reaction that alters the configuration of one or more chiral centers in a molecule. Catalysis of a biochemical reaction at physiological temperatures. In biologically catalyzed reactions, the reactants are known as substrates, and the catalysts are naturally occurring macromolecular substances known as enzymes. Enzymes possess specific binding sites for substrates, and are usually composed wholly or largely of protein, but RNA that has catalytic activity (ribozyme) is often also regarded as enzymatic. Catalysis of the geometric or structural changes within one molecule. Isomerase is the systematic name for any enzyme of EC class 5. Catalysis of the reaction: (2S)-2-methylacyl-CoA = (2R)-2-methylacyl-CoA.
