In enzymology, a phenylpyruvate decarboxylase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction :phenylpyruvate phenylacetaldehyde + CO2 Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, phenylpyruvate, and two products, phenylacetaldehyde and CO2. This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the carboxy-lyases, which cleave carbon-carbon bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is phenylpyruvate carboxy-lyase (phenylacetaldehyde-forming). This enzyme is also called phenylpyruvate carboxy-lyase. This enzyme participates in phenylalanine and tryptophan metabolism. ==Structural studies== As of late 2007, only one structure has been solved for this class of enzymes, with the PDB accession code . 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Phenylpyruvate decarboxylase」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
