that from P. putida is not. The enzyme from a number of sources also acts on L-serine, cf. EC 4.3.1.17, L-serine ammonia-lyase. The reaction catalysed probably involves initial elimination of water, hence the enzyme's original classification as EC 4.2.1.16, threonine dehydratase, followed by isomerization and hydrolysis of the product with C-N bond breakage |

The enzyme from many sources is a pyridoxal-phosphate protein |
