What is EC 2.6.1.2?
The Uses of EC 2.6.1.2
It is used for research and clinical diagnostic assays for liver disease. Alanine transaminase (GPT/ALT) is used in multi-analyte clinical chemistry controls and calibrators for major IVD manufacturers. The alanine aminotransferase (ALT) blood test is typically used to detect liver injury. Some of the other applications include Diagnostic Controls, calibrators & standards, immunoassays, clinical chemistry, testing/assay validation, life Science, manufacturing, validation Studies.
General Description
Glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (GPT) is localized majorly in the liver.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (GPT) mediates the transfer of the amino group to α-ketoglutarate from l-alanine. It plays a key role in gluconeogenesis and amino acid metabolism. The role of GPT in various kinds of tumors has been reported.
