L-aspartate:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase
A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. Also acts on L-tyrosine, L-phenylalanine and L-tryptophan. Aspartate transaminase activity can be formed from the aromatic-amino-acid transaminase (EC 2.6.1.57) of Escherichia coli by controlled proteolysis [7], some EC 2.6.1.57 activity can be found in this enzyme from other sources [8]; indeed the enzymes are identical in Trichomonas vaginalis [6].
inhibitor of C-S lyase, reduces renal injuries due to cisplatin in rats. On day 5 following a bolus cisplatin injection, in vivo nephrotoxic potentials are in the decreasing order of species rats > mice, rabbits, based on body surface. The levels of renal Pt residue at the nephrotoxic dose are in order of rabbits > rats > mice. The activity of endogenous basal mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase, one of the C-S lyases, in the renal cortex of naive animals is rats > mice, rabbits. Expression of mitochondrial C-S lyase in the kidney is observed at approximately 37 kDa in all five species used. In in vitro studies, the cytotoxicity of cisplatin is dependent on the expression level of C-S lyase mRNA in the respective renal cells
decreased enzyme activity induces calpain activation by increasing the cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations of BV2 microglia, resulting in mitochondrial depolarization and cell death

Circulating osteocalcin concentrations are associated with parameters of liver fat infiltration and increase in parallel to decreased liver enzymes after weight loss
Cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase mediates the mitochondrial membrane potential and cell survival by maintaining the calcium homeostasis of BV2 microglia
