phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase M-CSA #857 | Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) catalyses the irreversible carboxylation of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to form oxaloacetate (OAA) and Pi using divalent Mg(II) or Mn(II) as a cofactor. The active species for initial carboxylation is not carbon dioxide but the chemically less reactive bicarbonate anion, which dominates in the cytoplasm where PEPC functions. The enzyme is present in all photosynthetic organisms, including higher plants, green algae, cyanobacteria and photosynthetic bacteria, and most nonphotosynthetic bacteria and protozoa, but is notably absent from animals, fungi, and yeasts. PEPC primarily plays an anaplerotic role by replenishing C4-dicarboxylic acids utilised for both energy and biosynthetic metabolisms. | Defined by 6 residues: HIS:A-138ARG:A-396GLU:A-506ASP:A-543ARG:A-581ARG:A-713 | EC: 4.1.1.31 (PDB Primary Data) |
