Term Information

Accession
GO:0036242
Name
glutamate catabolic process to succinate via 2-oxoglutarate-dependent GABA-transaminase activity
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
glutamate degradation via gamma aminobutyrate transaminase activity
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of glutamate into succinate, that includes the conversion of 4-aminobutyrate to succinate semialdehyde by the 2-oxoglutarate-dependent gamma aminobutyrate (GABA) transaminase. Source: MetaCyc:PWY-4321, GOC:bf
Comment
While mammals only have 2-oxoglutarate-dependent GABA-transaminase, both 2-oxoglutarate-dependent and pyruvate-dependent GABA-transaminase activities have been detected in plants.
