Comments [?]

FUNCTION	Catalyzes the isomerization of L-xylulose-5-phosphate to L- ribulose-5-phosphate. Is involved in the anaerobic L-ascorbate utilization.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY	Reaction=L-ribulose 5-phosphate = L-xylulose 5-phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:18497, ChEBI:CHEBI:57829, ChEBI:CHEBI:58226; EC=5.1.3.22;
PATHWAY	Cofactor degradation; L-ascorbate degradation; D-xylulose 5- phosphate from L-ascorbate: step 3/4.
INDUCTION	Induced by L-ascorbate. Repressed by UlaR.
SIMILARITY	Belongs to the L-ribulose-5-phosphate 3-epimerase family.
