2-aminohexanoate transaminase

Class of enzymes 2-aminohexanoate transaminase 2.6.1.67 111310-35-1 0047537 2-aminohexanoate transaminase (2.6.1.67) is a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction 65% Q415428 norleucine 1.2 + α-Ketoglutaric acid α-ketoglutaric acid reversible Q27102314 2-oxohexanoic acid + Q26995161 L-glutamic acid The two substrates of this enzyme characterised from Candida guilliermondii are L-norleucine and α-ketoglutaric acid. Its products are 2-oxohexanoic acid and L-glutamic acid.Der Garabedian PA, Vermeersch JJ 1987 Candida L-norleucine,leucine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase Purification and properties Eur. J. Biochem. 167 141–7 3622507 10.1111/j.1432-1033.1987.tb13315.x 1 free This enzyme is a transferase, specifically a transaminase, which transfer nitrogenous groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-2-aminohexanoate:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase. Other names in common use include norleucine transaminase, norleucine (leucine) aminotransferase, and leucine L-norleucine: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase.2.6.1.67 References Biology no Category:EC 2.6.1 Category:Pyridoxal phosphate enzymes Category:Enzymes of unknown structure
