Record overview

MGPD IDMGP006164
Gene ID84706
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameglutamic pyruvate transaminase (alanine aminotransferase) 2
Gene Symbol GPT2
SynonymsALT2;
Alternate namesalanine aminotransferase 2; GPT 2; glutamate pyruvate transaminase 2; glutamic--alanine transaminase 2; glutamic--pyruvic transaminase 2; glutamic-pyruvate transaminase 2;
Chromosome16
Map Location16q12.1
EC Number2.6.1.2
SummaryThis gene encodes one of the two pyridoxal enzymes which catalyze a reversible transamination reaction to yield glutamate and pyruvate so these enzymes participate in amino acid metabolism and gluconeogenesis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
