What it does, reaction by reaction

0 reactions

This enzyme appears only in the regulation table, with no catalysed step recorded.

What accelerates and inhibits it

Regulation is pathway-specific, so each context is listed separately

1 entries

Transamination

Accelerated by

Branched-chain amino acid availability

Inhibited by

Product accumulation (branched-chain keto acids/glutamate)

Hormonal control

Insulin favors BCAA uptake and protein synthesis in muscle; catabolic states favor net BCAA oxidation
