Enzyme Information

2.6.1.3
Cysteine transaminase.
based on mapping to UniProt P00503
L-cysteine + 2-oxoglutarate = mercaptopyruvate + L-glutamate.
2.6.1.1
Aspartate transaminase.
based on mapping to UniProt P00503
L-aspartate + 2-oxoglutarate = oxaloacetate + L-glutamate.
-!- Also acts on L-tyrosine, L-phenylalanine and L-tryptophan. -!- This activity can be formed from EC 2.6.1.57 by controlled proteolysis.
