Metabolite IDMMDBc0032934
Metabolite Identification
Common Name3-(indol-3-yl)pyruvic acid
DescriptionThe thiamin diphosphate (ThDP)-dependent enzyme indolepyruvate decarboxylase (IPDC) is involved in the biosynthetic pathway of the phytohormone 3-indoleacetic acid and catalyzes the nonoxidative decarboxylation of 3-indolepyruvate to 3-indoleacetaldehyde and carbon dioxide. (PMID:15835904 )  In addition, the enzyme was compared with the phenylpyruvate decarboxylase from Azospirillum brasilense and the indolepyruvate decarboxylase from Enterobacter cloacae. (PMID:21501384 ) Indole-3-pyruvate is a microbial metabolite, urinary indole-3-pyruvate is produced by Clostridium sporogenes (PMID:29168502 ) and Trypanasoma brucei (PMID:27856732 ).
