Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 106:8605-8610(2009). CC -!- FUNCTION: Specifically catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-arginine to CC agmatine. Has no S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (AdoMetDC) CC activity. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01298}. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: CC Reaction=H(+) + L-arginine = agmatine + CO2; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:17641, CC ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:16526, ChEBI:CHEBI:32682, CC ChEBI:CHEBI:58145; EC=4.1.1.19; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP- CC Rule:MF_01298}; CC -!- COFACTOR: CC Name=pyruvate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:15361; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP- CC Rule:MF_01298}; CC Note=Binds 1 pyruvoyl group covalently per subunit. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- CC Rule:MF_01298}; CC -!- PATHWAY: Amine and polyamine biosynthesis; agmatine biosynthesis; CC agmatine from L-arginine: step 1/1. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01298}. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heterooctamer of four alpha and four beta chains arranged as a CC tetramer of alpha/beta heterodimers. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01298}. CC -!- PTM: Is synthesized initially as an inactive proenzyme. Formation of CC the active enzyme involves a self-maturation process in which the CC active site pyruvoyl group is generated from an internal serine residue CC via an autocatalytic post-translational modification. Two non-identical CC subunits are generated from the proenzyme in this reaction, and the CC pyruvate is formed at the N-terminus of the alpha chain, which is CC derived from the carboxyl end of the proenzyme. The post-translation CC cleavage follows an unusual pathway, termed non-hydrolytic serinolysis, CC in which the side chain hydroxyl group of the serine supplies its CC oxygen atom to form the C-terminus of the beta chain, while the CC remainder of the serine residue undergoes an oxidative deamination to CC produce ammonia and the pyruvoyl group blocking the N-terminus of the CC alpha chain. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01298}. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the prokaryotic AdoMetDC family. Type 1 CC subfamily. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01298}.
