FAMILY

class-I pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family

CATEGORY

enzyme

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm,organelle,mitochondria
	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic

basic FUNCTION	catalyzing the conversion of L-tyrosine into p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate
	pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the reversible transamination of tyrosine to p-hydrophenylpyruvate, an important step in tyrosine metabolism
	plays an important suppressive role in the development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma
	catalyzes the transamination of tyrosine and other aromatic amino acids
