Aspartate Aminotransferase, Mitochondrial

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein|Enzyme

**Definition:** Aspartate aminotransferase, mitochondrial (430 aa, ~48 kDa) is encoded by the human GOT2 gene. This protein plays a role in both the metabolism of amino acids and fatty acid transport.
