Enzymes

General function:
Involved in oxidoreductase activity
Specific function:
Multifunctional enzyme mediating important protective effects. Metabolizes betaine aldehyde to betaine, an important cellular osmolyte and methyl donor. Protects cells from oxidative stress by metabolizing a number of lipid peroxidation-derived aldehydes. Involved in lysine catabolism.

Aminoadipic acid + Adenosine triphosphate → L-2-Aminoadipate adenylate + Pyrophosphatedetails
Allysine + NAD + Water → Aminoadipic acid + NADH + Hydrogen Iondetails
Allysine + NADP + Water → Aminoadipic acid + NADPH + Hydrogen Iondetails
General function:
Involved in transferase activity, transferring nitrogenous groups
Specific function:
Transaminase with broad substrate specificity. Has transaminase activity towards aminoadipate, kynurenine, methionine and glutamate. Shows activity also towards tryptophan, aspartate and hydroxykynurenine. Accepts a variety of oxo-acids as amino-group acceptors, with a preference for 2-oxoglutarate, 2-oxocaproic acid, phenylpyruvate and alpha-oxo-gamma-methiol butyric acid. Can also use glyoxylate as amino-group acceptor (in vitro).
