cis-trans isomerism [′si¦stranz ī′säm·ə‚riz·əm]
(organic chemistry)
A type of geometrical isomerism found in alkenic systems in which it is possible for each of the doubly bonded carbons to carry two different atoms or groups; two similar atoms or groups may be on the same side (cis) or on opposite sides (trans) of a plane bisecting the alkenic carbons and perpendicular to the plane of the alkenic system.

SlyD is a cytoplasmic peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) which is harvested from overexpressing strains of E.
Quite interestingly, we have observed that when the isomer distribution between cis and trans isomers of the IPDI used changes between high cis to equal cis-trans to high trans, the properties of the TPU go through a minimum.
In this book the field of cis-trans isomerization in organic chemistry and bioorganic chemistry is presented comprehensively.
