Pyruvate Decarboxylase (PDC) (C008B-267650)

Pyruvate decarboxylase is a thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP)-dependent decarboxylase that catalyzes the irreversible decarboxylation of pyruvate to acetaldehyde and carbon dioxide. It is mainly involved in the anaerobic fermentation pathway in microorganisms and plants. Widely distributed in yeast, bacteria and some plants, it is a key rate-limiting enzyme for ethanol fermentation, and requires magnesium ions (Mg²⁺) to maintain conformation and catalytic activity. In microbial metabolism, PDC converts glycolytic pyruvate into acetaldehyde, which is further reduced to ethanol by alcohol dehydrogenase, accompanied by the regeneration of NAD⁺.
