Function

Multifunctional aminotransferase with a broad substrate specificity (PubMed:20018850, PubMed:23023372, PubMed:24586340). Catalyzes the conversion of glyoxylate to glycine using alanine as the amino donor (By similarity). Catalyzes metabolism of not L- but the D-isomer of D-beta-aminoisobutyric acid to generate 2-methyl-3-oxopropanoate and alanine (PubMed:24586340). Catalyzes the transfer of the amino group from beta-alanine to pyruvate to yield L-alanine and 3-oxopropanoate (By similarity). Can metabolize NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (NMMA), asymmetric NG,NG-dimethyl-L-arginine (ADMA) and symmetric NG,N'G-dimethyl-L-arginine (SDMA) (PubMed:20018850, PubMed:23023372). ADMA is a potent inhibitor of nitric-oxide (NO) synthase, and this activity provides mechanism through which the kidney regulates blood pressure (PubMed:20018850, PubMed:23023372)
