Gpt Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable L-alanine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase activity and pyridoxal phosphate binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of gluconeogenesis. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human GPT (glutamic--pyruvic transaminase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Gpt often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
