Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, L-threo-3-phenylserine, and two products, glycine and benzaldehyde.

This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the aldehyde-lyases, which cleave carbon-carbon bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-threo-3-phenylserine benzaldehyde-lyase (glycine-forming). This enzyme is also called L-threo-3-phenylserine benzaldehyde-lyase. It employs one cofactor, pyridoxal phosphate.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, only one structure has been solved for this class of enzymes, with the PDB accession code 1V72.

gollark: I think in the case of machine learning stuff it is partly because of, again, Nvidia lock-in stuff.
gollark: Vega cards, IIRC, definitely ended up selling for substantially less for quite a while.
gollark: Is that even valid grammar?
gollark: I don't think those were the actual prices except quite soon after release, but I also don't really remember huge amounts of detail about the historic state of GPUs anyway.
gollark: Or, well, "best performance/usability for your intended range of tasks within your available budget".
