Disease relevance of AOAT2

  • When expressed as recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli, GGT1 and GGT2 displayed biochemical characteristics very similar to one another, and to the Arabidopsis protein purified from leaves [1].
 

High impact information on AOAT2

 

Associations of AOAT2 with chemical compounds

  • Four aminotransferase activities were specifically associated with GGT1 and GGT2, using the substrate pairs glutamate (Glu):glyoxylate, Ala:glyoxylate, Glu:pyruvate, and Ala:2-oxoglutarate [1].
