In enzymology an aspartate 1-decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionL-aspartate beta-alanine + CO2Hence this enzyme has one substrate L-aspartate and two products beta-alanine and CO2.This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases specifically the carboxy-lyases which cleave carbon-carbon bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-aspartate 1-carboxy-lyase (beta-alanine-forming).
