Staphylopine dehydrogenase
In enzymology, a staphylopine synthase is an enzyme that catalyzes NADPH-dependent reductive condensation of pyruvate to the intermediate -2-amino-4-butanoate, which is the last step in the biosynthesis of the metallophore staphylopine. The chemical reaction is:
Alternative name: '''staphylopine dehydrogenase.'''
