What it does, reaction by reaction

1 reactions

Transamination Amino Acid & Nitrogen Metabolism · Cytosol + mitochondrion

step 3 Reversible

L-alanine + α-ketoglutarate ⇌ pyruvate + L-glutamate

Converts Alanine Alpha-ketoglutarate into Pyruvate Glutamate

› Notes

Alanine aminotransferase (ALT/GPT) catalyzes this PLP-dependent, reversible reaction. In the glucose–alanine cycle, muscle exports alanine and liver converts it to pyruvate for gluconeogenesis while retaining the nitrogen as glutamate.
