Biochemical, developmental, molecular, and phylogenetic studies on insect pyruvate carboxylases.

Pyruvate carboxylase (Pyruvate: carbon dioxide ligase (ADP-forming), EC 6.4.1.1), is a biotin-dependent enzyme catalyzing a two step reaction ligating the carboxyl group to pyruvate. This enzyme was shown to be present in several tissues of ten different species of insects. Pyruvate carboxylase was...
