| aspartate 1-decarboxylase | <enzyme> A pyridoxal-phosphate protein that catalyses the alpha-decarboxylation of l-glutamic acid to form gamma-aminobutyric acid and carbon dioxide. The enzyme is found in bacteria and in invertebrate and vertebrate nervous systems. It is the rate-limiting enzyme in determining gaba levels in normal nervous tissues. The brain enzyme also acts on l-cysteate, l-cysteine sulfinate, and l-aspartate. Chemical name: L-Glutamate-1-carboxy-lyase Registry number: EC 4.1.1.15 (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| aspartate 4-decarboxylase | Aspartate beta-decarboxylase;a carboxy-lyase converting l-aspartate to l-alanine (releasing CO2); it decarboxylates aminomalonate and (in bacteria) removes SO2 from cysteinesulfinate. See: desulfinase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aspartate-alpha-decarboxylase | <enzyme> Forms beta-alanine Registry number: EC 4.1.1.11 Synonym: aspartate 1-decarboxylase (26 Jun 1999) |
| carboxynorspermidine decarboxylase | <enzyme> Nspc protein isolated from vibrio alginolyticus; genbank d31783 Registry number: EC 4.1.1.- Synonym: cans dc, nspc gene product (26 Jun 1999) |

| glutamate decarboxylase | <enzyme> A pyridoxal-phosphate protein that catalyses the alpha-decarboxylation of l-glutamic acid to form gamma-aminobutyric acid and carbon dioxide. The enzyme is found in bacteria and in invertebrate and vertebrate nervous systems. It is the rate-limiting enzyme in determining gaba levels in normal nervous tissues. The brain enzyme also acts on l-cysteate, l-cysteine sulfinate, and l-aspartate. Chemical name: L-Glutamate-1-carboxy-lyase Registry number: EC 4.1.1.15 (12 Dec 1998) |

| pyruvate decarboxylase | <enzyme> Catalyses the decarboxylation of an alpha keto acid to an aldehyde and carbon dioxide. Thiamine pyrophosphate is an essential cofactor. In lower organisms, which ferment glucose to ethanol and carbon dioxide, the enzyme irreversibly decarboxylates pyruvate to acetaldehyde. Registry number: EC 4.1.1.1 (12 Dec 1998) |
| hydroxypyruvate decarboxylase | <enzyme> Catalyses the nonoxidative decarboxylation of hydroxypyruvate to glycolaldehyde and co2; present in a variety of tissues in a number of species Registry number: EC 4.1.1.40 Synonym: hydroxypyruvate carboxy-lyase (26 Jun 1999) |
| hydroxytryptophan decarboxylase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the decarboxylation of l-dopa to dopamine, of l-tryptophan to tryptamine, and of l-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin; important in the biosynthetic pathway of catecholamines and melanin. Synonym: dopa decarboxylase, hydroxytryptophan decarboxylase, tryptophan decarboxylase. (05 Mar 2000) |
