Protein name Glycine dehydrogenase (decarboxylating), mitochondrial (EC 1.4.4.2) (Glycine cleavage system P protein) (Glycine decarboxylase) (Glycine dehydrogenase (aminomethyl-transferring))
Protein function The glycine cleavage system catalyzes the degradation of glycine. The P protein (GLDC) binds the alpha-amino group of glycine through its pyridoxal phosphate cofactor; CO(2) is released and the remaining methylamine moiety is then transferred to
