Short Notes on Aminotransferases | Protein Metabolism
Article Shared by
The below mentioned article provides a short note on Aminotransferases. Aminotransferases catalyse the transfer of amino group from an amino acid to a keto acid—a new amino and keto acid are formed in this process. Clinically, the two most important aminotransferases are: Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), now designated aspartate aminotransferase and glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), […]

The below mentioned article provides a short note on the Reactions of Urea Cycle. Carbamoyl phosphate is formed by the condensation of one mol of phosphate (derived from ATP) being catalyzed by the enzyme carbamoyl phosphate synthetase which is present in liver mitochondria of all ureotelic organisms including humans. In addition to magnesium ion (Mg++), […]
