In enzymology, a valine-pyruvate transaminase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction :L-valine + pyruvate 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate + L-alanine Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are L-valine and pyruvate, whereas its two products are 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate and L-alanine. This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically the transaminases, which transfer nitrogenous groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-valine:pyruvate aminotransferase. Other names in common use include transaminase C, valine-pyruvate aminotransferase, and alanine-oxoisovalerate aminotransferase. This enzyme participates in valine, leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis. ==References== * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Valine—pyruvate transaminase」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
