Phenylpyruvate decarboxylase (PPDC) catalyzes the conversion of phenylpyruvate to phenylacetaldehyde. PPDC participates in phenylalanine and tryptophan metabolism.
3D Structures of phenylpyruvate decarboxylase
2q5j, 2q5l – AbPPDC + deaza-ThDP derivative – Azospirillum brasilense
2q5o - AbPPDC + deaza-ThDP + phenylpyruvate
2q5q - AbPPDC + deaza-ThDP + phenylvalerate
