Maleylpyruvate isomerase (EC 5.2.1.4) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

The enzyme has one substrate, 3-maleylpyruvic acid, which it converts to its geometric isomer, 3-fumarylpyruvic acid.

This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically cis-trans isomerases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 3-maleylpyruvate cis-trans-isomerase. This enzyme participates in tyrosine metabolism.
