Peptidyl-glutamate 4-carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.90, vitamin K-dependent carboxylase, gamma-glutamyl carboxylase) is an enzyme with systematic name peptidyl-glutamate 4-carboxylase (2-methyl-3-phytyl-1,4-naphthoquinone-epoxidizing).[1][2][3][4][5][6] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

peptidyl-4-carboxyglutamate + 2,3-epoxyphylloquinone + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] peptidyl-glutamate + CO2 + O2 + phylloquinone

The enzyme can use various vitamin-K derivatives, including menaquinone.
