Studies on the mechanism of formation of the pyruvate prosthetic group of phosphatidylserine decarboxylase from Escherichia coli.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 5 Mar 1990

Li Q X, Dowhan W

Abstract excerpt

Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase from Escherichia coli uses a pyruvate group as the enzyme cofactor (Satre, M., and Kennedy, E. P. (1978) J. Biol. Chem. 253, 479-483). Comparison of the DNA sequence of the psd gene with the partial amino acid sequence of the mature gene product suggests that the two nonidentical subunits of the mature enzyme are formed by cleavage of a proenzyme resulting in the conversion of...
