	2.6.1.32
Description	Valine--3-methyl-2-oxovalerate transaminase
Alternative names	Valine-isoleucine aminotransferase
Catalyzed reaction	L-valine + (S)-3-methyl-2-oxopentanoate = 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate + L-isoleucine.
Cofactor	Pyridoxal-phosphate (?)
Comments	Presumably a PLP-dependent enzyme, given the type of catalyzed reaction. However, no cofactor requirement was found in the literature (just one paper, in russian).
	Maybe identical to Branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase EC 2.6.1.42 .
Organisms	-Plants
