Chapter 18, Problem 8P
Summary Introduction
To determine: The reason that aspartate aminotransferase has the highest activity of all the mammalian liver aminotransferase.
Introduction:
Transamination is the process which involves the α-amino group to α-carbon atom of α-ketoglutarate which leaves behind the corresponding α-keto acid. The ureotelic organisms involve the deposition of ammonia in mitochondria of hepatocytes, which is converted to urea in the urea cycle.
