General description

Glutamate-pyruvate transaminase (EC 2.6.1.2), also known as alanine aminotransferase, catalyzes the reversible conversion of L-alanine and alpha-ketoglutarate to L-glutamate and pyruvate. It has 2 distinct molecular and genetic forms: one cytoplasmic (soluble) (GPT1) and one mitochondrial (GPT2; MIM 138210). See ALTQTL1 (MIM 612363) and ALTQTL2 (MIM 612364) for information on quantitative trait loci influencing the plasma level of alanine aminotransferase.[supplied by OMIM
The GPT (glutamate pyruvate transaminase 1) gene with 11 exons spanning 2.7kb of genomic DNA, is mapped to human chromosome 8q24.3. The encoded protein consists of 495 amino acids and is identical to the human GPT-1.

Immunogen

GPT (AAH18207.1, 1 a.a. ~ 496 a.a) full-length recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Serum GPT (Glutamate pyruvate transaminase 1) acts as a common biomarker in screening chronic liver injury. GPT levels identify the risk of osteoporosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

Two frequent protein variants of glutamate pyruvate transminase (GPT) (E.C.2.6.1.2) have been used as genetic markers in humans for more than two decades, although chromosomal mapping of the GPT locus in the 1980s produced conflicting results. To resolve this conflict
