GO Classification
Functions
  • L-phenylalanine
  • L-tyrosine
  • pyridoxal phosphate binding
  • amino acid binding
Processes
  • glutamate metabolic process
  • L-phenylalanine catabolic process
  • tyrosine catabolic process
  • biosynthetic process
  • response to oxidative stress
  • cellular nitrogen compound metabolic process
  • small molecule metabolic process
  • response to glucocorticoid
  • response to mercury ion
  • 2-oxoglutarate metabolic process
Components
  • mitochondrion
  • cytosol
General FunctionPyridoxal phosphate binding
Specific FunctionTransaminase involved in tyrosine breakdown. Converts tyrosine to p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate. Can catalyze the reverse reaction, using glutamic acid, with 2-oxoglutarate as cosubstrate (in vitro). Has much lower affinity and transaminase activity towards phenylalanine.
