Mitochondrial glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase 2 (aspartate aminotransferase 2 - GOT2) catalyzes the reversible reaction of aspartate and 2-oxoglutarate (alpha-ketoglutarate) to form oxaloacetate and glutamate (Martini et al. 1985). The active form of the enzyme is inferred to be a dimer with one molecule of pyridoxal phosphate associated with each monomer.
