Sysname |
D-threonine acetaldehyde-lyase (glycine-forming)
|
Reaction(IUBMB) |
(1) D-threonine = glycine + acetaldehyde [RN: R08195];
(2) D-allothreonine = glycine + acetaldehyde [RN: R08196]

Comment |
A pyridoxal-phosphate protein that is activated by divalent metal cations (e.g. Co2+, Ni2+, Mn2+ or Mg2+) [1,2]. The reaction is reversible, which can lead to the interconversion of D-threonine and D-allothreonine [1]. Several other D-beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino acids, such as D-beta-phenylserine, D-beta-hydroxy-alpha-aminovaleric acid and D-beta-3,4-dihydroxyphenylserine, can also act as substrate [1].
