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. AST is an Aminotransferases which work to interconvert aminoacids using transamination. This is a process which utilizes an α-keto acid convert an amino acid usually Glutmate to a second amino acid. These transamination reactions also involve the conversion of oxaloacetate to α-ketoglutarate.
