Pyruvate Decarboxylase Activity Assay in situ of Different Industrial Yeast Strains

Cytoplasmic pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC, EC 4.1.1.1) is one of the key enzymes of yeast fermentative metabolism. PDC is the first enzyme which, under anaerobic conditions, leads to decarboxylation of pyruvate with acetaldehyde as the end product. The aim of this study is to develop a suitable method...
