Aspartate transaminase (EC 2.6.1.1., Asp-transaminase) has been studied extensively, and much is now known about its physico-chemical, catalytic and other properties. X-ray studies that can provide a structural foundation for the events that occur during the transamination reaction are under way on three species of Asp-transaminase: the cytosolic enzyme from pig and chicken hearts, and the mitochondrial chicken heart enzyme. We describe here the interpretation of an electron density map of Asp-transaminase from chicken heart cytosol at 3.5 A.
天冬氨酸转氨酶（EC 2.6.1.1.，天冬氨酸 - 转氨酶）已得到广泛研究，目前对其物理化学、催化及其他特性已有很多了解。针对三种天冬氨酸转氨酶正在进行X射线研究，这些研究可为转氨反应过程中发生的事件提供结构基础，这三种酶分别是：猪和鸡心脏中的胞质酶，以及鸡心脏中的线粒体酶。我们在此描述了对鸡心脏胞质中天冬氨酸转氨酶在3.5埃分辨率下的电子密度图的解读。
