Question

The reaction below is catalyzed by an enzyme that has as coenzyme pyridoxal phosphate,
a derivative of vitamin B6:
A + B↔C + D
The correct statement about this reaction is:

Exciteful Elk · Accepted Answer

all the above statements are correct
if A is glutamic acid and B is pyruvic acid, then C is α-ketoglutaric acid and D is alanine;
if A is glutamic acid and B is oxalylacetic acid, then C is α-ketoglutaric acid and D is
aspartic acid;
if the answer "a" is correct, then the enzyme is called glutamate-pyruvate transaminase
(GPT) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT);
if the answer "b" is correct, then the enzyme is called glutamate-oxalylacetate transaminase
(GOT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST)
