General annotation (Comments)

Function

catalyzes the formation of methionine from 2-keto-4-methylthiobutyrate (KMTB) primarily using aromatic amino acids (tyrosine, phenylalanine and tryptophan) or glutamate as the amino donors. Histidine, leucine, asparagine, or arginine are also functional amino donors but to a lesser extent. Can also use alpha-ketoglutarate, oxaloacetate and pyruvate as the amino acceptors.

Catalytic activity

L-tyrosine + 2-oxoglutarate = 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate + L-glutamate.

L-tyrosine + 4-(methylthio)-2-oxobutanoate = hydroxyphenylpyruvate + methionine.

An aromatic amino acid + 2-oxoglutarate = an aromatic oxo acid + L-glutamate.

L-aspartate + 2-oxoglutarate = oxaloacetate + L-glutamate.

Cofactor

Pyridoxal phosphate Potential.

Enzyme regulation

Inhibited by malate and nitrotyrosine by approximately 20% at the higher concentration. At 100 µM, canaline and carboxymethoxylamine inhibit aminotransferase activity by 35 and 70%, respectively. Addition of 1.0 mM carboxymethoxylamine lead to a complete inhibition of the aminotransferase activity. Ref.1

Pathway

Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-methionine biosynthesis via salvage pathway; L-methionine from S-methyl-5-thio-alpha-D-ribose 1-phosphate: step 6/6.

Subunit structure

Homodimer. Ref.1

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the class-I pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.
