sce:AGX1

Genes: 31

SGD Description
Alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGT); catalyzes the synthesis of glycine from glyoxylate, which is one of three pathways for glycine biosynthesis in yeast; similar to mammalian and plant alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferases; human homolog AGXT complements yeast null mutant


AspGD Description
Ortholog(s) have alanine-glyoxylate transaminase activity, role in glycine biosynthetic process, by transamination of glyoxylate and mitochondrion localization
