Pyruvate, phosphate dikinase
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In enzymology, a pyruvate, phosphate dikinase (EC 2.7.9.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- ATP + pyruvate + phosphate AMP + phosphoenolpyruvate + diphosphate
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP, pyruvate, and phosphate, whereas its 3 products are AMP, phosphoenolpyruvate, and diphosphate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with paired acceptors. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ATP:pyruvate, phosphate phosphotransferase. Other names in common use include pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase, pyruvate-phosphate dikinase (phosphorylating), pyruvate, phosphate dikinase, pyruvate-inorganic phosphate dikinase, pyruvate-phosphate dikinase, pyruvate-phosphate ligase, pyruvic-phosphate dikinase, pyruvic-phosphate ligase, pyruvate, Pi dikinase, and PPDK. This enzyme participates in pyruvate metabolism and carbon fixation.
