Posttranslational Modification

Posttranslational Modification Comment Organism
proteolytic modification self-processing of subunits at Gly24-Ser25 producing beta-chain with residues 1-24 and alpha chain with residues 25-117. In the apo structure, Ser25, which forms the N-terminus of alpha chain, is converted to a pyruvoyl group Helicobacter pylori

Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
L-aspartate = beta-alanine + CO2 in the apo structure, N-terminal Ser25 of alpha chain is converted to pyruvoyl group. Substrate analogue isoasparagine becomes covalently attached to the pyruvoyl group forming the Schiff base intermediate prior to decarboxylation Helicobacter pylori
