Description |
Serine decarboxylase (4.1.1.-) |
Alternative names |
L-serine decarboxylase. |
Catalyzed reaction |
L-serine = ethanolamine + CO(2). |
Cofactor |
Pyridoxal-phosphate. |
|
In plants, serine decarboxylation appears to be the main source of ethanolamine.
Serine decarboxylation appears to occur in Plasmodium, also. |
