| Accepted name: |
2,2-dialkylglycine decarboxylase (pyruvate) |
| Reaction: |
2,2-dialkylglycine + pyruvate = dialkyl ketone + CO2 + L-alanine |
| Other name(s): |
dialkyl amino acid (pyruvate) decarboxylase; α-dialkyl amino acid transaminase; 2,2-dialkyl-2-amino acid-pyruvate aminotransferase; L-alanine-α-ketobutyrate aminotransferase; dialkylamino-acid decarboxylase (pyruvate); 2,2-dialkylglycine carboxy-lyase (amino-transferring) |
| Systematic name: |
2,2-dialkylglycine carboxy-lyase (amino-transferring; L-alanine-forming) |
