Answer / neha
Transamination is defined as the process of transfer of an
amino(-NH2) group from an aminoacid to a ketoacid.It is
deamination of an aminoacid coupled with amination of a
ketoacid.The principles sites of transamination are
liver,kidney,brain & heart.The transamination is
reversible. All aminoacids except Lysine,threonine,proline,
and hydroxy proline participate in transamination.
