AGXT2

The protein encoded by this gene is a class III pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent mitochondrial aminotransferase. It catalyzes the conversion of glyoxylate to glycine using L-alanine as the amino donor.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]. ##Evidence-Data-START## Transcript exon combination :: AJ292204.1, AB193309.1 [ECO:0000332] RNAseq introns :: mixed/partial sample support ERS025084, ERS025088 [ECO:0000350] ##Evidence-Data-END## ##RefSeq-Attributes-START## gene product(s) localized to mito. :: reported by MitoCarta ##RefSeq-Attributes-END##
