BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
L-3,5,3'-triiodothyronine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase
Reaction(IUBMB)
L-3,5,3'-triiodothyronine + 2-oxoglutarate = 3-[4-(4-hydroxy-3-iodophenoxy)-3,5-diiodophenyl]-2-oxopropanoate + L-glutamate [RN:R03952]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
L-3,5,3'-triiodothyronine [CPD:C02465];
2-oxoglutarate [CPD:C00026]
Product
3-[4-(4-hydroxy-3-iodophenoxy)-3,5-diiodophenyl]-2-oxopropanoate [CPD:C03832];
L-glutamate [CPD:C00025]
Comment
A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. Acts on monoiodotyrosine, diiodotyrosine, triiodothyronine, thyroxine and dinitrotyrosine (unlike EC 2.6.1.24 diiodotyrosine transaminase, which does not act on dinitrotyrosine). Pyruvate or oxaloacetate can act as acceptors.
