A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. With one component of the animal enzyme, 2-oxobutanoate can replace glyoxylate. A second component also catalyses the reaction of EC 2.6.1.51 serine---pyruvate transaminase.

infusion of asymmetric dimethylarginines causes a 3- to 4fold increase in plasma and urine asymmetric dimethylarginine levels and a 2- to 3fold increase in plasma and urine levels of the asymmetric dimethylarginine-specific metabolite of AGXT2, alpha-keto-delTA-(N,N-dimethylguanidino)valeric acid. Plasma levels of alpha-keto-delTA-(N,N-dimethylguanidino)valeric acid are elevated 32fold in the mice, which underwent bilateral nephrectomy. Neither bilateral nephrectomy nor asymmetric dimethylarginine infusion causes upregulation of AGXT2 expression or activity
