TargetCategoryDefinition
L-aspartate:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: L-aspartate + 2-oxoglutarate = oxaloacetate + L-glutamate. [EC:2.6.1.1]
phosphatidylserine decarboxylase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: H+ + phosphatidyl-L-serine = CO2 + phosphatidylethanolamine. [EC:4.1.1.65, RHEA:20828]
pyridoxal phosphate bindingmolecular functionBinding to pyridoxal 5' phosphate, 3-hydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methyl4-pyridine carboxaldehyde 5' phosphate, the biologically active form of vitamin B6. [GOC:mah, ISBN:0198506732]
L-cysteine transaminase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: L-cysteine + 2-oxoglutarate = mercaptopyruvate + L-glutamate. [RHEA:17441]

Located In

This protein is located in 4 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
nucleuscellular componentA membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent. [GOC:go_curators]
cytoplasmcellular componentThe contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. [ISBN:0198547684]
cytosolcellular componentThe part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes. [GOC:hjd, GOC:jl]
extracellular exosomecellular componentA vesicle that is released into the extracellular region by fusion of the limiting endosomal membrane of a multivesicular body with the plasma membrane. Extracellular exosomes, also simply called exosomes, have a diameter of about 40-100 nm.

cellular response to insulin stimulusbiological processAny process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an insulin stimulus. Insulin is a polypeptide hormone produced by the islets of Langerhans of the pancreas in mammals, and by the homologous organs of other organisms. [GOC:mah, ISBN:0198506732]
response to glucocorticoidbiological processAny process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a glucocorticoid stimulus. Glucocorticoids are hormonal C21 corticosteroids synthesized from cholesterol with the ability to bind with the cortisol receptor and trigger similar effects. Glucocorticoids act primarily on carbohydrate and protein metabolism, and have anti-inflammatory effects. [GOC:ai, PMID:9884123]
