Isomerases are not only enzimes, they are also isoproteins.
A mutase is a simple form of protein, sinthetised it can become an enzime, along with sodium.
The difference between isomerase and mutase is that mutase procludes a methane particle and isomerase enact sodium particles (2 to 4), plus some mutases combined with calcium are forms of isomerases.
