GO:0004021

MF

L-alanine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase activity

Catalysis of the reaction: 2-oxoglutarate + L-alanine = L-glutamate + pyruvate.

GO:0005737

CC

cytoplasm

All of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures.

GO:0005777

CC

peroxisome

A small organelle enclosed by a single membrane, and found in most eukaryotic cells. Contains peroxidases and other enzymes involved in a variety of metabolic processes including free radical detoxification, lipid catabolism and biosynthesis, and hydrogen

GO:0008453

MF

alanine-glyoxylate transaminase activity

Catalysis of the reaction: L-alanine + glyoxylate = pyruvate + glycine.

GO:0009058

BP

biosynthetic process

The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of substances; typically the energy-requiring part of metabolism in which simpler substances are transformed into more complex ones.

GO:0009507

CC

chloroplast

A chlorophyll-containing plastid with thylakoids organized into grana and frets, or stroma thylakoids, and embedded in a stroma.

GO:0009570

CC

chloroplast stroma

The space enclosed by the double membrane of a chloroplast but excluding the thylakoid space. It contains DNA, ribosomes and some temporary products of photosynthesis.

GO:0009853

BP

photorespiration

A light-dependent catabolic process occurring concomitantly with photosynthesis in plants (especially C3 plants) whereby dioxygen (O2) is consumed and carbon dioxide (CO2) is evolved. The substrate is glycolate formed in large quantities in chloroplasts f

GO:0030170

MF

pyridoxal phosphate binding

Interacting selectively and non-covalently with pyridoxal 5' phosphate, 3-hydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methyl4-pyridine carboxaldehyde 5' phosphate, the biologically active form of vitamin B6.

GO:0042853

BP

L-alanine catabolic process

The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of L-alanine, the L-enantiomer of 2-aminopropanoic acid, i.e. (2S)-2-aminopropanoic acid.

GO:0047958

MF

glycine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase activity

Catalysis of the reaction: glycine + 2-oxoglutarate = glyoxylate + L-glutamate.
