Superfamily Type I PLP-dependent aspartate aminotransferase-like (Major domain)
Functional Family Valine--pyruvate aminotransferase

Enzyme Information

2.6.1.1
Aspartate transaminase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q8ZL86
L-aspartate + 2-oxoglutarate = oxaloacetate + L-glutamate.
-!- Also acts on L-tyrosine, L-phenylalanine and L-tryptophan. -!- This activity can be formed from EC 2.6.1.57 by controlled proteolysis.
2.6.1.66
Valine--pyruvate transaminase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q8ZL86
L-valine + pyruvate = 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate + L-alanine.
-!- Different from EC 2.6.1.42.
