Enzyme Information
| 2.6.1.1 | Aspartate transaminase. based on mapping to UniProt Q9SIE1 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. | 
| 2.6.1.78 | Aspartate--prephenate aminotransferase. based on mapping to UniProt Q9SIE1 L-arogenate + oxaloacetate = prephenate + L-aspartate. -!- Glutamate can also act as the amino donor, but more slowly (cf. EC 2.6.1.79). | 
| 2.6.1.79 | Glutamate--prephenate aminotransferase. based on mapping to UniProt Q9SIE1 L-arogenate + 2-oxoglutarate = prephenate + L-glutamate. -!- Aspartate can also act as the amino donor, but more slowly (cf. EC 2.6.1.78). -!- The enzyme from higher plants shows a marked preference for prephenate as substrate compared to pyruvate, phenylpyruvate or 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate. |
