Description
Product Characteristics: AGXT, alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase, AGT, AGT1, AGXT1, PH1, SPAT, SPT, TLH6, L-alanine: glyoxylate aminotransferase 1, hepatic peroxisomal alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase, serine-pyruvate aminotransferase, serine:pyruvate aminotransferase
Target Information: This gene is expressed only in the liver and the encoded protein is localized mostly in the peroxisomes, where it is involved in glyoxylate detoxification. Mutations in this gene, some of which alter subcellular targetting, have been associated with type I primary hyperoxaluria. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
