Western blot analysis of GCAT using rabbit polyclonal GCAT Antibody using 293 cell lysates (2 ug/lane) either nontransfected (Lane 1) or transiently transfected (Lane 2) with the GCAT gene.
The degradation of L-threonine to glycine consists of a
two-step biochemical pathway involving the enzymes L-threonine
dehydrogenase and 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate coenzyme A ligase.
L-Threonine is first converted into 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate by
L-threonine dehydrogenase. This gene encodes the second enzyme in
this pathway, which then catalyzes the reaction between
2-amino-3-ketobutyrate and coenzyme A to form glycine and
acetyl-CoA. The encoded enzyme is considered a class II
pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase. Alternate splicing
results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene
is found on chromosome 14.1) Jacquot, C., et al. Anticancer Res. 22(4):2229-2235(2002)
