General annotation (Comments)

Function	Transaminase with broad substrate specificity. Has transaminase activity towards aminoadipate, kynurenine, methionine and glutamate. Shows activity also towards tryptophan, aspartate and hydroxykynurenine. Accepts a variety of oxo-acids as amino-group acceptors, with a preference for 2-oxoglutarate, 2-oxocaproic acid, phenylpyruvate and alpha-oxo-gamma-methiol butyric acid. Can also use glyoxylate as amino-group acceptor (in vitro) By similarity.
Catalytic activity	L-kynurenine + 2-oxoglutarate = 4-(2-aminophenyl)-2,4-dioxobutanoate + L-glutamate. L-2-aminoadipate + 2-oxoglutarate = 2-oxoadipate + L-glutamate.
Cofactor	Pyridoxal phosphate.
Pathway	Amino-acid degradation; L-lysine degradation via saccharopine pathway; glutaryl-CoA from L-lysine: step 4/6.
Subunit structure	Homodimer By similarity.
Subcellular location	Mitochondrion Potential.
Tissue specificity	Expressed mainly in kidney and to a lesser amount in liver and brain. Ref.1
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the class-I pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.
