dmlA

Gene
dmlA
Protein
D-malate dehydrogenase [decarboxylating]
Organism
Escherichia coli (strain K12)
Length
361 amino acids
Function
Catalyzes the NAD(+)-dependent oxidative decarboxylation of D-malate into pyruvate. Is essential for aerobic growth on D-malate as the sole carbon source. But is not required for anaerobic D-malate utilization, although DmlA is expressed and active in those conditions. Appears to be not able to use L-tartrate as a substrate for dehydrogenation instead of D-malate.
Similarity
Belongs to the isocitrate and isopropylmalate dehydrogenases family.
Mass
40.315 kDa
