Swiss-port # O15382 Human Branched-chain-amino-acid aminotransferase, mitochondrial |
|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | BCAT2 |
| Gene Full Name | branched chain amino-acid transaminase 2, mitochondrial |
| Background | This gene encodes a branched chain aminotransferase found in mitochondria. The encoded protein forms a dimer that catalyzes the first step in the production of the branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009] |
| Function | Catalyzes the first reaction in the catabolism of the essential branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine. May also function as a transporter of branched chain alpha-keto acids. [UniProt] |
| Cellular Localization | Isoform A: Mitochondrion. [UniProt] |
| Calculated MW | 44 kDa |
