Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000166123:
This gene encodes one of the two pyridoxal enzymes which catalyze a reversible transamination reaction to yield glutamate and pyruvate so these enzymes participate in amino acid metabolism and gluconeogenesis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
