The name of this superfamily has been modified since the most recent official CATH+ release (v4_2_0). At the point of the last release, this superfamily was named:

"
Type I PLP-dependent aspartate aminotransferase-like (Major domain)
".

FunFam 63395: Alanine aminotransferase 2, mitochondrial

There are 7 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase. [EC: 4.4.1.14]
S-adenosyl-L-methionine = 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate + methylthioadenosine.
  • Catalyzes an alpha,gamma-elimination.

Alanine transaminase. [EC: 2.6.1.2]
L-alanine + 2-oxoglutarate = pyruvate + L-glutamate.
  • 2-aminobutanoate acts slowly instead of alanine.

Glycine transaminase. [EC: 2.6.1.4]
Glycine + 2-oxoglutarate = glyoxylate + L-glutamate.

    Alanine--glyoxylate transaminase. [EC: 2.6.1.44]
    L-alanine + glyoxylate = pyruvate + glycine.
    • With one component of the animal enzyme, 2-oxobutanoate can replace glyoxylate.
    • A second component also catalyzes the reaction of EC 2.6.1.51.
    5 A0A084FWL0 A0A178WFM8 A0A178WG36 Q9LR30 Q9S7E9
    Alanine--oxo-acid transaminase. [EC: 2.6.1.12]
    L-alanine + a 2-oxo acid = pyruvate + an L-amino acid.
      1 A0A171B308
      Cystathionine gamma-lyase. [EC: 4.4.1.1]
      L-cystathionine + H(2)O = L-cysteine + NH(3) + 2-oxobutanoate.
      • The enzyme cleaves a carbon-sulfur bond, releasing L-cysteine and an unstable enamine product that tautomerizes to an imine form, which undergoes a hydrolytic deamination to form 2-oxobutanoate and ammonia.
      • The latter reaction, which can occur spontaneously, can also be catalyzed by EC 3.5.99.10.
      • Also catalyzes the conversion of L-homoserine to 2-oxobutanoate and ammonia, of L-cystine to thiocysteine, pyruvate and ammonia, and of L-cysteine to pyruvate, hydrogen sulfide and ammonia.
      • Formerly EC 4.2.1.15.
      1 O23788
      3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate hydroxymethyltransferase. [EC: 2.1.2.11]
      5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate + 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate + H(2)O = tetrahydrofolate + 2-dehydropantoate.
