FunFam 182: NAD-dependent malic enzyme

There are 3 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Malolactic enzyme. [EC: 4.1.1.101]
(S)-malate = (S)-lactate + CO(2).
  • The enzyme is involved in the malolactic fermentation of wine, which results in a natural decrease in acidity and favorable changes in wine flavors.
  • It has been purified from several lactic acid bacteria, including Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Oenococcus oeni.

Malate dehydrogenase (oxaloacetate-decarboxylating). [EC: 1.1.1.38]
(1) (S)-malate + NAD(+) = pyruvate + CO(2) + NADH. (2) Oxaloacetate = pyruvate + CO(2).
  • Unlike EC 1.1.1.39, this enzyme can also decarboxylate oxaloacetate, cf. EC 1.1.1.40.
1 P40375
Malate dehydrogenase (oxaloacetate-decarboxylating) (NADP(+)). [EC: 1.1.1.40]
(1) (S)-malate + NADP(+) = pyruvate + CO(2) + NADPH. (2) Oxaloacetate = pyruvate + CO(2).
  • The enzyme catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of (S)-malate in the presence of NADP(+) and divalent metal ions, and decarboxylation of oxaloacetate, cf. EC 1.1.1.38 and EC 1.1.1.39.
