Acidic amino acid decarboxylase GADL1 (GADL1) can decarboxylate aspartate, cysteine sulfinic acid, and cysteic acid to beta-alanine, hypotaurine and taurine, respectively but does not exhibit any decarboxylation activity toward glutamate (Liu et al. 2012, 2013). The dimeric structure of the enzyme is inferred from studies of its mouse homolog (Raasakka et al. 2018).
