International audience. The Pdx1 enzyme catalyses condensation of two carbohydrates and ammonia to form pyridoxal 5-phosphate (PLP) via an imine relay mechanism of carbonyl intermediates. The I333 intermediate characterised here using structural, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and mass spectrometry analyses rationalises stereoselective deprotonation and subsequent substrate assisted phosphate elimination, central to PLP biosynthesis.
