FunFam 187: Probable L-tyrosine/L-aspartate decarboxylase

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
Aspartate 1-decarboxylase. [EC: 4.1.1.11]
L-aspartate = beta-alanine + CO(2).
    4 O58679 Q5JJ82 Q60358 Q8TUQ9
    Tyrosine decarboxylase. [EC: 4.1.1.25]
    L-tyrosine = tyramine + CO(2).
    • The bacterial enzyme also acts on 3-hydroxytyrosine and, more slowly, on 3-hydroxyphenylalanine.
    2 Q60358 Q8TUQ9
    Glutamate decarboxylase. [EC: 4.1.1.15]
    L-glutamate = 4-aminobutanoate + CO(2).
    • The brain enzyme also acts on L-cysteate, 3-sulfino-L-alanine and L-aspartate.
