Unlike mammals, bacteria encode enzymes that synthesize branched-chain amino acids. The pyridoxal 50-phosphate-dependent transaminase performs the final biosynthetic step in these pathways, converting keto acid precursors into -amino acids. The branched-chain amino-acid transaminase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MtIlvE) has been crystallized

Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are synthesized in plants from branched-chain keto acids, but their metabolism is not completely understood. The interface of BCAA metabolism lies with branched-chain aminotransferases (BCAT) that catalyze both the last anabolic step and the first catabolic

Excised retinas from euglycemic and diabetic Sprague-Dawley rats were studied to evaluate differences in glutamate metabolism related to diabetes. Reports suggest, neuronal cell death possibly caused by glutamate excitotoxicity, is an early consequence of diabetes. To monitor the influence of

Although the branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are essential components of the mammalian diet, our current understanding of their metabolism in plants is still limited. It is however well known that the branched-chain amino acid transaminases (BCATs) play a crucial role

Aminotransferases are key enzymes of the metabolism of proteinogenic amino acids. These ubiquitous biocatalysts show high specific activities and relaxed substrate specificities making them valuable tools for the stereoselective synthesis of unnatural amino acids. We describe here the application of
