ncbi summary :
This gene encodes an aminotransferase that transaminates kynurenine to form kynurenic acid. Kynurenic acid is a metabolite of tryptophan. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different proteins have been described for this gene. This gene shares 5' exon structure with the RNA binding motif protein, X-linked-like 1 locus on chromosome 1, but the coding sequences are non-overlapping. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2009]
uniprot summary :
CCBL2: Catalyzes the irreversible transamination of the L- tryptophan metabolite L-kynurenine to form kynurenic acid (KA). May catalyze the beta-elimination of S-conjugates and Se- conjugates of L-(seleno)cysteine, resulting in the cleavage of the C-S or C-Se bond. Has transaminase activity towards L-kynurenine, tryptophan, phenylalanine, serine, cysteine, methionine, histidine, glutamine and asparagine with glyoxylate as an amino group acceptor (in vitro). Has lower activity with 2- oxoglutarate as amino group acceptor (in vitro). Belongs to the class-I pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: EC 2.6.1.63; EC 4.4.1.13; Transferase; Lyase; EC 2.6.1.7. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1p22.2. Cellular Component: mitochondrion. Molecular Function: cysteine-S-conjugate beta-lyase activity; protein homodimerization activity; kynurenine-glyoxylate transaminase activity; kynurenine-oxoglutarate transaminase activity; pyridoxal phosphate binding. Biological Process: amino acid metabolic process; biosynthetic process; tryptophan catabolic process; 2-oxoglutarate metabolic process
