Gene Description

Glycine dehydrogenase (decarboxylating), the P-protein of the mitochondrial glycine cleavage system (glycine decarboxylase complex) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (EC 1.4.4.2). Using pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, Gcv2 decarboxylates glycine and transfers the remaining aminomethyl group to the lipoyl arm of the H-protein Gcv3, which then passes it to the T-protein Gcv1; the reduced lipoamide is reoxidised by Lpd1. GCV2 (gsd2) is needed to convert glycine to serine and to use glycine as sole nitrogen source, and its expression is specifically induced by glycine.

Summary: Ogur et al. 1977 correlated a mutation giving a one-carbon requirement with lack of glycine decarboxylase activity. The abstract does not name the gene; SGD curators (who read the full text) attached this IDA to GCV2, the P-protein that catalyses this decarboxylation. Deferred to the curator.

RCA
GO_REF:0000123
REMOVE
Summary: YeastPathways RCA (GLYCLEAV-PWY) asserts activity in the cytosol, which is the default compartment used by the YeastPathways-to-GO-CAM conversion. The glycine cleavage system of S. cerevisiae is mitochondrial; Gcv2 carries a mitochondrial presequence and is found in purified mitochondria. There is no evidence for a cytosolic glycine cleavage activity.
Reason: Default-compartment artefact of the YeastPathways conversion; Gcv2 is mitochondrial.
