    4.1.1.19 | L-Arg |
inducible enzyme |
| 4.1.1.19 | L-Arg |
constitutive enzyme |
| 4.1.1.19 | L-Arg |
important enzyme in putrescine and polyamine biosynthesis |
| 4.1.1.19 | L-Arg |
agmatine production by the mitochondria could serve as a protective mechanism against cytotoxicity from excessive nitric oxide formation |
| 4.1.1.19 | L-Arg |
cAMP receptor protein controls arginine decarboxylase expression by inhibiting the activity of the enzyme indirectly and putrescine represses the gene at the level of transcription |
| 4.1.1.19 | L-Arg |
higher activity in plants cultivated on ammonium chloride than in plants grown on nitrate |
| 4.1.1.19 | L-Arg |
possibly active in biosynthesis of polyamines required for growth by expansion and differentiation or in synthesis of alkaloids from putrescine |
| 4.1.1.19 | L-Arg |
key enzyme in polyamine metabolism of plants |
| 4.1.1.19 | L-Arg |
2 enzyme forms: a biosynthetic arginine decarboxylase and a degradative arginine decarboxylase. The physiological role of the degradative arginine decarboxylase possibly is the regulation of the environmental pH |
| 4.1.1.19 | L-Arg |
regulatory role in growth and cell division |
