| + | The specific function of Human ornithine aminotransferase (hOAT) is that of an enzyme. It can be found in humans, as well as mice and pigs. It helps transfer L-ornithine’s δ-amino group to α-ketoglutarate (α-KG). | ||

| + | ''h''OAT is important because it is heavily involved in the urea cycle. In mammals, it dictates a large portion of the development of neonates. The research on this protein is relevant to science as a whole because it could directly impact cancer research and lead to the creation of cancer management in humans. | ||
