Glutamate-Aspartate Aminotransferase
Introduction: Aspartate Aminotransferase(AST)has also been known as serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT). It is an enzyme that functions within the Amino Acid Biosynthesis pathway to interconvert Glutamate and Aspartate. Aminotransferases work to transform amino acids using transamination. This is a process which utilizes the exchange of an α-keto acid to alter an amino acid usually Glutamate to a second amino acid. These transamination reactions also involve oxaloacetate and α-ketoglutarate.
