Radiation damage at the active site of human alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase reveals that the cofactor position is finely tuned during catalysis

The alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGT), a hepatocyte-specific pyridoxal-5′-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzyme, transaminates L-alanine and glyoxylate to glycine and pyruvate, thus detoxifying glyoxylate and preventing pathological oxalate precipitation in tissues. In the widely accepted catalyt...
