Enzymes

General function:
Involved in transferase activity
Specific function:
L-aspartate + 2-oxoglutarate = oxaloacetate + L-glutamate
Gene Name:
aspC
Uniprot ID:
P00509
Molecular weight:
43573
Reactions
L-aspartate + 2-oxoglutarate = oxaloacetate + L-glutamate.
General function:
Involved in glutamate decarboxylase activity
Specific function:
Converts glutamate to gamma-aminobutyrate (GABA), consuming one intracellular proton in the reaction. The gad system helps to maintain a near-neutral intracellular pH when cells are exposed to extremely acidic conditions. The ability to survive transit through the acidic conditions of the stomach is essential for successful colonization of the mammalian host by commensal and pathogenic bacteria
