Bcat1 - branched chain amino acid transaminase 1 Gene

Also Known as Bcatc

Species: Rattus norvegicus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 29592

Summary

Enables branched-chain-amino-acid transaminase activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in leucine biosynthetic process and valine biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within branched-chain amino acid catabolic process. Located in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human BCAT1 (branched chain amino acid transaminase 1).
