Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (or PEPCase) is an enzyme in the family of carboxy-lyases. It acts upon phosphoenolpyruvate to produce oxaloacetate.

In plants, this can eventually lead to the production of glucose.

It is classified under EC number 4.1.1.31.
