Description
A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. The product, 4-aminobutanal, spontaneously cyclizes to form 1-pyrroline, which is a substrate for EC 1.2.1.19, aminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase. Cadaverine and spermidine can also act as substrates. Forms part of the arginine-catabolism pathway.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
putrescine-α-ketoglutarate transaminase; YgjG; putrescine:α-ketoglutarate aminotransferase; PAT; putrescine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase; putrescine transaminase
Reaction
putrescine + 2-oxoglutarate = 1-pyrroline + L-glutamate + H2O (overall reaction); (1a) putrescine + 2-oxoglutarate = 4-aminobutanal + L-glutamate; (1b) 4-aminobutanal = 1-pyrroline + H2O (spontaneous)
