Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 2875
Gene name Glutamic--pyruvic transaminase
Gene symbol GPT
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
AAT1ALTALT1GPT1SGPT
Chromosome 8
Chromosome location 8q24.3
Summary This gene encodes cytosolic alanine aminotransaminase 1 (ALT1); also known as glutamate-pyruvate transaminase 1. This enzyme catalyzes the reversible transamination between alanine and 2-oxoglutarate to generate pyruvate and glutamate and, therefore, play
