| Comments |
A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. This enzyme differs from EC?2.6.1.42, branched-chain-amino-acid transaminase, in that it does not act on?L-valine or?L-isoleucine, although it does act on?L-methionine. The mitochondrial form from rat liver differs in physical characteristics from the cytoplasmic form. |
| Cofactor |
pyridoxal 5′-phosphate |
| History |

L-leucine + 2-oxoglutarate = 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoate + L-glutamate. |
