Glycine dehydrogenase (decarboxylating)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In enzymology, a glycine dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) (EC 1.4.4.2) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- glycine + H-protein-lipoyllysine H-protein-S-aminomethyldihydrolipoyllysine + CO2
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are glycine and H-protein-lipoyllysine, whereas its two products are H-protein-S-aminomethyldihydrolipoyllysine and CO2.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with a disulfide as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is glycine:H-protein-lipoyllysine oxidoreductase (decarboxylating, acceptor-amino-methylating). Other names in common use include P-protein, glycine decarboxylase, glycine-cleavage complex, glycine:lipoylprotein oxidoreductase (decarboxylating and, acceptor-aminomethylating), and protein P1. This enzyme participates in glycine, serine and threonine metabolism. It employs one cofactor, pyridoxal phosphate.
