The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In the process, one molecule of O2 is consumed and the glycine residue is removed from the peptide and converted to glyoxylic acid.
- The enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of many signaling peptides and some fatty acid amides.
- In humans, the enzyme is encoded by the PAM gene.
