The enzyme phenylpyruvate decarboxylase ( EC 4.1.1.43) catalyzes the chemical reaction
This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the carboxy-lyases, which cleave carbon-carbon bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is phenylpyruvate carboxy-lyase (phenylacetaldehyde-forming). This enzyme is also called phenylpyruvate carboxy-lyase.[ citation needed] This enzyme participates in phenylalanine and tryptophan metabolism.
As of late 2007, only one structure has been solved for this class of enzymes, with the PDB accession code 2NXW.
