SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameornithine aminotransferase
Gene Symbol OAT
SynonymsOKT; GACR; HOGA; OATASE;
Alternate namesornithine aminotransferase, mitochondrial; gyrate atrophy; ornithine delta-aminotransferase; ornithine-oxo-acid aminotransferase;
Chromosome10
Map Location10q26
EC Number2.6.1.13
SummaryThis gene encodes the mitochondrial enzyme ornithine aminotransferase, which is a key enzyme in the pathway that converts arginine and ornithine into the major excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters glutamate and GABA. Mutations that result in a deficiency of this enzyme cause the autosomal recessive eye disease Gyrate Atrophy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. Related pseudogenes have been defined on the X chromosome. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]
