    High-Definition Coding

    HDC (Hybrid Digital Coding) with SBR (spectral band replication) is a proprietary lossy audio compression codec developed by iBiquity for use with HD Radio. It replaced the earlier PAC codec in 2003. It is thought to be a modified form of MPEG-4 HE-AAC.

    Histidine decarboxylase

    Histidine decarboxylase (HDC) is the enzyme that catalyzes the reaction that produces histamine from histidine with the help of vitamin B6 as follows:

    In humans, the histidine decarboxylase enzyme is encoded by the HDC gene.

    Function

    The biogenic amine histamine is an important modulator of numerous physiologic processes, including neurotransmission, gastric acid secretion, and smooth muscle tone. The biosynthesis of histamine from histidine is catalyzed by the enzyme L-histidine decarboxylase. This homodimeric enzyme is a pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-dependent decarboxylase and is highly specific for its histidine substrate.

    Biosynthesis

    In bacteria, it is synthesised as a proenzyme, PI. Cleavage of the proenzyme PI chain yields two subunits, alpha and beta, which arrange as a hexamer, (alpha beta)6, by nonhydrolytic self-catalysis.

    Clinical significance

    Inhibitors of histidine decarboxylase can be used as atypical antihistamines. (See Tritoqualine)

    Mutations in the gene for this enzyme have been observed in one family with Tourette syndrome (TS) and are not thought to account for most cases of TS.
