# SERIALIZABLE

`SERIALIZABLE` is one of the transaction isolation levels. Similar to `REPEATABLE READ`, but InnoDB implicitly converts all plain `SELECT` statements to `SELECT ... LOCK IN SHARE MODE` if autocommit is disabled.

See [Isolation Levels](/docs/server/reference/sql-statements/administrative-sql-statements/set-commands/set-transaction.md#isolation-levels) for details.
