| Glutamate is also a principal amino donor to other amino acids in subsequent transamination reactions. |
| The key organic acid, 2-oxoglutarate, is mainly derived from sugar respiration and amino acid transamination reactions. |
| In the first phase of catabolism, α keto acids are formed through transamination. |
| Metabolism of amino acids involves deamination and transamination reactions. |
| Leucine, isoleucine, and valine are branched essential amino acids that are catabolized to corresponding keto acids through the process of transamination. |
| Alkaloid chemistry underlines the significance of the blocks, pathways and transamination reactions. |
