Short Notes on Aminotransferases | Protein Metabolism

The below mentioned article provides a short note on Aminotransferases. Aminotransferases catalyse the transfer of amino group from an amino acid to a keto acid—a new amino and keto acid are formed in this process. Clinically, the two most important aminotrans­ferases are: Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), now designated aspartate aminotransferase and glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), now des­ignated alanine aminotransferase. These [...]
