一般描述

Glutamic-Oxalacetic Transaminase is found in all tissues and is predominant in the liver and skeletal muscle. It is a prototype of fold-type I pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP)-enzymes. Glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase is a homodimer containing large and small domains in each subunit.

应用

Glutamic-Oxalacetic Transaminase from porcine heart has been used:

• in an enzyme-coupled assay for evaluating L-asparaginase enzyme activity
• in microtiter plate format enzyme-based assay to estimate malic acid content in berry samples
• as a supplement in homogenization buffers for the isolation of heart mitochondrial membranes in the presence of oxaloacetate (OAA)-depleting system

生化/生理作用

Glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase or aspartate aminotransferase (AAT) catalyzes the interconversion of L-aspartate and α-ketoglutarate with oxalacetate and L-glutamate. This reversible transaminase reaction is dependent on pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP). Glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase maintains the nitrogen currency for metabolism by generating L-glutamate. Elevated serum levels of glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase are indicated in myocardial infarction, liver diseases, and some renal diseases.
