Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Substrate specificity:** TAT exhibits high specificity for the amino group transfer from tyrosine to α-ketoglutarate, producing L-tyrosine and 2-oxoglutarate. 2. **Coenzyme dependence:** TAT requires pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) as a coenzyme for its catalytic activity. 3. **Tissue distribution:** TAT is primarily expressed in the liver (periportal, midzonal, and centrilobular regions), small intestine (colon goblet cells, intestinal crypt stem cells, and enterocytes), and immune cells (inflammatory macrophages). 4. **Regulatory mechanisms:** TAT expression is modulated by various factors, including hormonal stimuli (e.g., dexamethasone) and oxidative stress. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Tyrosine catabolism:** TAT is the primary enzyme responsible for the breakdown of tyrosine, which is then converted into L-tyrosine and 2-oxoglutarate. 2. **Amino acid metabolism:** TAT participates in the metabolism of various amino acids, including phenylalanine, tyrosine, and glutamate. 3. **2-Oxoglutarate metabolic process:** TAT is involved in the 2-oxoglutarate metabolic process, which is crucial for energy production, biosynthesis, and nitrogen metabolism. 4. **Biosynthetic process:** TAT contributes to the biosynthesis of various compounds, including neurotransmitters, hormones, and amino acid derivatives. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Tyrosinemia:** Mutations in the TAT gene have been associated with tyrosinemia, a genetic disorder characterized by elevated levels of tyrosine in the blood and tissues. 2. **Neurological disorders:** Abnormal TAT activity has been linked to various neurological disorders, including Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, and autism spectrum disorder. 3. **Cancer:** TAT expression is often upregulated in cancer cells, contributing to their growth, survival, and metastasis. 4. **Inflammatory diseases:** TAT is involved in the regulation of immune responses, and its dysregulation has been implicated in various inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis and atherosclerosis. In conclusion, tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) is a vital enzyme that plays a crucial role in amino acid metabolism, energy production, and immune responses. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of understanding TAT's functions and pathways in maintaining human health.
