PsiD - Tryptophan decarboxylase from Psilocybe cubensis
PsiD is a tryptophan decarboxylase, which catalyses the conversion of L-tryptophan to tryptamine.
Usage and Biology
PsiD is a native enzyme obtained from the Psilocybe cubensis, which is involved in the metabolic biosynthesis of psilocybin from tryptophan. It accepts both L-tryptophan and 4-hydroxy-L-tryptophan as substrates, producing tryptamine and 4-hydroxytryptamine, respectively. Heterologous expression of PsiD has been achieved in Escherichia coli <add strain> in a <expression system>.
