Partial Recovery of Glutamic-oxaloacetic Transaminase Activity in the Infarcted Areas of the Myocardium in Rabbits during Stimulation of Protein Synthesis

Nature volume 198, pages 692–693 (1963)Cite this article

Abstract

THERE are very high concentrations of glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) in the hearts of animals, including man, as compared with other organs and tissues1,2. This fact underlines the importance of the process of transamination connected with the respiratory cycle during metabolism and myoeardial functions.
