In presence of 0.5 mM AMP, the decarboxylation reaction was inhibited up to 50% of the control while even in presence of 5 mM AMP, the carboxylation reaction was unaffected (Fig. 3). Lombricine phosphate, one of the naturally occurring phosphagens in Tubifex , activates the PEPCK-catalyzed...
Pyruvate decarboxylation is the biochemical reaction that uses pyruvate to form acetyl-CoA, releasing NADH, a reducing equivalent, and carbon dioxide. Pyruvate decarboxylation, which links the metabolic pathways glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, is referred to as "the transition reaction," "the ...
These results suggest that the 5caC-to-C conversion appears to utilize a similar catalytic reaction as the 5caU-to-U conversion. This is the first in vitro evidence for the direct decarboxylation of 5caC to C by an enzyme. To analyze the functional roles of the key residues at the ...
