Abstract excerpt

In both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), one of the most abundant membrane phospholipids, plays important roles in various membrane functions and is synthesized through the decarboxylation of phosphatidylserine (PS) by PS decarboxylases (PSDs). However, the catalysis and substrate recognition mechanisms of PSDs remain unclear. In this study, we focused on the PSD from Escherichia coli...
