Glyoxylate carboligase: A unique thiamin diphosphate-dependent enzyme that can cycle between the 4′-aminopyrimidinium and 1′,4′- iminopyrimidine tautomeric forms in the absence of the conserved glutamate

Glyoxylate carboligase (GCL) is a thiamin diphosphate (ThDP)-dependent enzyme, which catalyzes the decarboxylation of glyoxylate and ligation to a second molecule of glyoxylate to form tartronate semialdehyde (TSA). This enzyme is unique among ThDP enzyme
