The latter enzymes catalyze the irreversible decarboxylation of oxaloacetate and can be classified into (i) the divalent cation-dependent oxaloacetate decarboxylases and (ii) the membrane-bound sodium-dependent and biotin-containing oxaloacetate decarboxylases from enterobacteria.
The latter enzymes are responsible for the irreversible decarboxylation of oxaloacetate, which can be categorized into two types: divalent cation-dependent oxaloacetate decarboxylases and membrane-bound sodium-dependent and biotin-containing oxaloacetate decarboxylases found in enterobacteria.
