Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (diphosphate)

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (diphosphate) () is an enzyme with systematic name diphosphate:oxaloacetate carboxy-lyase (transphosphorylating; phosphoenolpyruvate-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

diphosphate + oxaloacetate phosphate + phosphoenolpyruvate + CO<sub>2</sub>

This enzyme also catalyses the reaction:

phosphoenolpyruvate + GTP + CO<sub>2</sub> pyruvate + GDP.

It is transcriptionally upregulated in the liver by glucagon.
