Bcat2 - branched chain aminotransferase 2, mitochondrial Gene

Also Known as Eca40; Bcat-2; Bcat(m)

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 12036

Summary

Enables branched-chain-amino-acid transaminase activity. Acts upstream of or within branched-chain amino acid metabolic process; cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor; and regulation of hormone levels. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study maple syrup urine disease. Orthologous to human BCAT2 (branched chain amino acid transaminase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
