2.6.1.84 | L-arginine + pyruvate |
AruH catalyzes the first step of the arginine transaminase pathway, representing one of the multiple pathways for L-arginine catabolism |
2.6.1.84 | L-arginine + pyruvate |
AruH catalyzes the first step in the arginine transaminase pathway, converting the substrates L-arginine and pyruvate into 2-ketoarginine and L-alanine, AruH may have a broader physiological function in amino acid catabolism |
2.6.1.84 | more |
arginine utilization proceeds via multiple catabolic pathways in the organism, the enzyme is involved in the arginine transaminase pathway, regulation of arginine-responsive induction of the arginine transaminase pathway, arginine metabolism, overview |
2.6.1.84 | more |
knockout of aruH and aruI, which encode an arginine:pyruvate transaminase and a 2-ketoarginine decarboxylase in an operon, also abolishes the ability of the aruF mutant to grow on L-arginine |
