molecular function |
| GO:0003941 | | L-serine ammonia-lyase activity | | Catalysis of the reaction: L-serine = pyruvate + NH3. |
| GO:0004794 | | L-threonine ammonia-lyase activity | | Catalysis of the reaction: L-threonine = 2-oxobutanoate + NH3. |
| GO:0016829 | | lyase activity | | Catalysis of the cleavage of C-C, C-O, C-N and other bonds by other means than by hydrolysis or oxidation, or conversely adding a group to a double bond. They differ from other enzymes in that two substrates are involved in one reaction direction, but only one in the other direction. When acting on the single substrate, a molecule is eliminated and this generates either a new double bond or a new ring. |
| GO:0042803 | | protein homodimerization activity | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an identical protein to form a homodimer. |
| GO:0030170 | | pyridoxal phosphate binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with pyridoxal 5' phosphate, 3-hydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methyl4-pyridine carboxaldehyde 5' phosphate, the biologically active form of vitamin B6. |
biological process |
| GO:0006565 | | L-serine catabolic process | | The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of L-serine, the L-enantiomer of serine, i.e. (2S)-2-amino-3-hydroxypropanoic acid. |
| GO:0006520 | | cellular amino acid metabolic process | | The chemical reactions and pathways involving amino acids, carboxylic acids containing one or more amino groups, as carried out by individual cells. |
| GO:0006094 | | gluconeogenesis | | The formation of glucose from noncarbohydrate precursors, such as pyruvate, amino acids and glycerol. |
| GO:0042866 | | pyruvate biosynthetic process | | The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of pyruvate, 2-oxopropanoate. |
cellular component |
| GO:0005737 | | cytoplasm | | All of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. |
| GO:0005739 | | mitochondrion | | A semiautonomous, self replicating organelle that occurs in varying numbers, shapes, and sizes in the cytoplasm of virtually all eukaryotic cells. It is notably the site of tissue respiration. |
