malolactic enzyme

The enzyme is involved in the malolactic fermentation of wine, which results in a natural decrease in acidity and favorable changes in wine flavors. It has been purified from several lactic acid bacteria, including Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Oenococcus oeni. The enzyme contains a tightly bound NAD+ cofactor and requires Mn2+.
