1-Aminocyclopropane-l-carboxylate deaminase (ACCD) is a pyridoxal 5/-phosphate dependent enzyme that shows deaminase activity toward ACC, a precursor of plant hormone ethylene. ACCD from some soil bacteria has been reported to be able to break the cyclopropane ring of ACC to yield a-ketobutyrate and ammonia ...
