Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP00388
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Alanine--glyoxylate aminotransferase 2, mitochondrial
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. (R)-3-amino-2-methylpropionate--pyruvate transaminase
  2. AGT 2
  3. Beta-ALAAT II
  4. Beta-alanine-pyruvate aminotransferase
  5. D-AIBAT
Gene Name AGXT2
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in transaminase activity
Specific Function Can metabolize asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) via transamination to alpha-keto-delta-(NN-dimethylguanidino) valeric acid (DMGV). ADMA is a potent inhibitor of nitric-oxide (NO) synthase, and this activity provides mechanism through which the kidney regulates blood pressure.
