Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase B is an enzyme that is encoded by the PPIBgene.[5] As a member of the peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) family, this protein catalyzes the cis-transisomerization of proline imidic peptide bonds, which allows it to regulate protein folding of type I collagen.[6][7] Generally, PPIases are found in all eubacteria and eukaryotes, as well as in a few archaebacteria, and thus are highly conserved.
