Enzyme Information

1.2.3.3
Pyruvate oxidase.
based on mapping to UniProt P37063
Pyruvate + phosphate + O(2) = acetyl phosphate + CO(2) + H(2)O(2).
-!- Two reducing equivalents are transferred from the resonant carbanion/enamine forms of 2-hydroxyethyl-thiamine-diphosphate to the adjacent flavin cofactor, yielding 2-acetyl-thiamine diphosphate (AcThDP) and reduced flavin. -!- FADH is reoxidized by O(2) to yield H(2)O(2) and FAD and AcThDP is cleaved phosphorolytically to acetyl phosphate and thiamine diphosphate.
