Transamination and oxidative deamination
Transamination & Oxidative deamination are key reactions in amino acid metabolism.
TRANSAMINATION
We define transamination as the transfer of an alpha-amino group from an alpha-amino acid to an alpha-keto acid via an aminotransferase.
The two most important aminotransferases are:
Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)
Alanine aminotransferase (ALT)
OXIDATIVE DEAMINATION
Oxidative deamination is the release of ammonium via a conversion of glutamate to alpha-ketoglutarate.
