Record overview

MGPD IDMGP000104
Gene ID189
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namealanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase
Gene Symbol AGXT
SynonymsAGT; PH1; SPT; AGT1; SPAT; TLH6; AGXT1;
Alternate namesserine--pyruvate aminotransferase; L-alanine: glyoxylate aminotransferase 1; alanine--glyoxylate aminotransferase; hepatic peroxisomal alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase; serine-pyruvate aminotransferase; serine:pyruvate aminotransferase;
Chromosome2
Map Location2q37.3
EC Number2.6.1.51
SummaryThis gene is expressed only in the liver and the encoded protein is localized mostly in the peroxisomes, where it is involved in glyoxylate detoxification. Mutations in this gene, some of which alter subcellular targetting, have been associated with type I primary hyperoxaluria. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
