Carboxylase refers to an enzyme that can use free HCO3 − to catalyze the introduction of CO2 into the substrate in the presence of biotin and ATP.This action is called carboxylation[1]。
Chinese name
Carboxylase
Foreign name
carboxylase
Exists in
Yeast, bacteria, plants
Participation
Transfer of carbon dioxide during respiration
Carboxylase exists in yeast, bacteria, plant and animal tissues.Pyruvate carboxylaseCarboxylate pyruvate to formOxaloacetic acidOxalacetic acid decarboxylase catalyzes the decomposition of oxaloacetic acid into pyruvate andcarbon dioxide[2]。Therefore, carboxylase is involved in the transfer of carbon dioxide during respiration.
