2.6.1.55 |
| Description |
Taurine aminotransferase. |
| Alternative names |
taurine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase |
| Catalyzed reaction |
Taurine + 2-oxoglutarate = sulfoacetaldehyde + L-glutamate. |
| Cofactor |
Pyridoxal-phosphate. |
| Comments |
-!- Also acts on D L-3-aminoisobutanoate, beta-alanine and 3-aminopropanesulfonate.
-!- Involved in the microbial utilization of b-alanine.
