Pyrrole-2-carboxylate decarboxylase

Pyrrole-2-carboxylate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.93) is an enzyme with systematic name pyrrole-2-carboxylate carboxy-lyase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

\rightleftharpoons

pyrrole + CO₂

(2) pyrrole-2-carboxylate + H₂O

\rightleftharpoons

pyrrole + HCO₃

The enzyme catalyses both the carboxylation and decarboxylation reactions.
