Protein attributes

Sequence length	430 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Plays a key role in amino acid metabolism. Important for metabolite exchange between mitochondria and cytosol. Facilitates cellular uptake of long-chain free fatty acids. Ref.6
Catalytic activity	L-aspartate + 2-oxoglutarate = oxaloacetate + L-glutamate.
Cofactor	Pyridoxal phosphate.
Subunit structure	Homodimer.
Subcellular location	Mitochondrion matrix. Cell membrane. Note: Exposure to alcohol promotes translocation to the cell membrane. Ref.6
Induction	Up-regulated by long-time exposure to alcohol. Ref.6
Miscellaneous	In eukaryotes there are cytoplasmic, mitochondrial and chloroplastic isozymes.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the class-I pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.
