Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Aminotransferase class-V; Pyridoxal phosphate-dependent transferase; Pyridoxal phosphate-dependent transferase, major domain; Aminotransferase class V domain; Pyridoxal phosphate-dependent transferase, small domain; and Serine-pyruvate aminotransferase/2-aminoethylphosphonate-pyruvate transaminase. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
agxt-1. In C. elegans,
agxt-1 is involved in glycine biosynthetic process, by transamination of glyoxylate.
