Pegvaliase structure[edit]

If Pegvaliase is an enzyme, how can the lysine derivative that's shown in the article be Pegvaliase? 2600:1700:B8B0:2FE0:C485:A107:C039:3E56 (talk) 06:43, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The chemical structure image and some other data in the infobox were inconsistent with the description of pegvaliase as "a pegylated derivative of the enzyme phenylalanine ammonia-lyase", so I have removed that data. It seems that some external databases have misidentified a small molecule as pegvaliase. Marbletan (talk) 15:34, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
