Mechanisms of Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate
The mechanisms below have been extracted from
MACiE. The substrates and products are abstracted to their essential parts,
which are necessary to explain the reaction the cofactor takes part in. The atoms
involved in the next step are highlighted in red, and the ones that have been changed
by the last step are shown in green. Red takes precedence when both applies.
Mechanism #1 for Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate
Mechanism #2 for Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate
Description of mechanism
Many PLP enzymes are catalytically promiscuous (i.e. the same enzyme catalyses more than one reaction) [2].
