Reaction: [pyruvate, phosphate dikinase] phosphate + phosphate = [pyruvate, phosphate dikinase] + diphosphate
Other name(s): PPDK regulatory protein (ambiguous); pyruvate, phosphate dikinase regulatory protein (ambiguous); bifunctional dikinase regulatory protein (ambiguous); PDRP1 (gene name)
Systematic name: [pyruvate, phosphate dikinase]-phosphate:phosphate phosphotransferase
Comments: The enzyme from the plants maize and Arabidopsis is bifunctional and also catalyses the phosphorylation of pyruvate, phosphate dikinase (EC 2.7.9.1), cf. EC 2.7.11.32, [pyruvate, phosphate dikinase] kinase [2-5].
