L-lysine does
not participate in
transamination. It is the
exception to the general rule
that the first step in
catabolism of an amino acid
is the removal of its alpha-
amino group by
transamination to form the
respective alpha-keto acid

Metabolic importance of transamination reactions?
To reduce toxic effect of some amino acid and convert to TCA intermediates for energy production. Transamination also help the ease of excretion.
What is the source of oxaloacetate?
aspartate (transamination) , malate (dehydrogenation) and pyruvate (carboxylation) .
What is an aminotransferase?
An aminotransferase is an alternative term for transaminase, any of a group of enzymes which catalyzes transamination.
What is pyrodoxal phosphate?
It is the active form of vitamin B6. It acts as a coenzyme in enzymatic reactions, e.g. transamination and deamination reactions.
