'''Aspartate 1-decarboxylase''' or '''aspartate α-decarboxylase''' (AADC) catalyzes the conversion of L-aspartate to β-alanine and CO2. '''Aspartate 4-decarboxylase''' or '''aspartate β-decarboxylase''' (ABDC) catalyzes the conversion of L-aspartate to L-alanine and CO2. AADC is a pyruvate-dependent enzyme which is synthesized as an inactive protein. The AADC precursor is cleaved to the active α and β subunits. ABDC is a pyridoxal-5’-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme. | '''Aspartate 1-decarboxylase''' or '''aspartate α-decarboxylase''' (AADC) catalyzes the conversion of L-aspartate to β-alanine and CO2.
