Summary
Predicted to enable branched-chain-amino-acid transaminase activity. Predicted to be involved in leucine biosynthetic process and valine biosynthetic process. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Orthologous to human BCAT1 (branched chain amino acid transaminase 1) and BCAT2 (branched chain amino acid transaminase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
