Mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase (GOT2)
Cofactors used
What it does, reaction by reaction
Malate-Aspartate Shuttle Energy Metabolism & Cellular Respiration · Cytosol + inner mitochondrial membrane
Oxaloacetate + glutamate <-> aspartate + alpha-ketoglutarate (matrix)
Converts Oxaloacetate Glutamate < into Aspartate Alpha-ketoglutarate
› Notes
Oxaloacetate cannot cross the membrane, so it leaves as aspartate.
Showing all 1 reactions.
