Alanine: glyoxylate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.44), which is involved in the glyoxylate pathway of glycine and serine biosynthesis from tricarboxylic acid-cycle intermediates in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, was highly purified and characterized. The enzyme had Mr about 80 000, with two identical subunits. It was highly specific for L-alanine and glyoxylate and contained pyridoxal 5'-phosphate as cofactor. The apparent Km values were 2.1 mM and 0.7 mM for L-alanine and glyoxylate respectively. The activity was low (10 nmol/min per mg of protein) with glucose as sole carbon source, but was remarkably high with ethanol or acetate as carbon source (930 and 430 nmol/min per mg respectively). The transamination of glyoxylate is mainly catalysed by this enzyme in ethanol-grown cells. When glucose-grown cells were incubated in medium containing ethanol as sole carbon source, the activity markedly increased, and the increase was completely blocked by cycloheximide, suggesting that the enzyme is synthesized de novo during the incubation period. Similarity in the amino acid composition was observed, but immunological cross-reactivity was not observed among alanine: glyoxylate aminotransferases from yeast and vertebrate liver.
