CC -!- FUNCTION: Biosynthesis of L-glutamate from L-aspartate or L-cysteine.
CC Important regulator of levels of glutamate, the major excitatory
CC neurotransmitter of the vertebrate central nervous system. Acts as a
CC scavenger of glutamate in brain neuroprotection. The aspartate
CC aminotransferase activity is involved in hepatic glucose synthesis
CC during development and in adipocyte glyceroneogenesis. Using L-cysteine
CC as substrate, regulates levels of mercaptopyruvate, an important source
CC of hydrogen sulfide. Mercaptopyruvate is converted into H(2)S via the
CC action of 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3MST). Hydrogen sulfide
CC is an important synaptic modulator and neuroprotectant in the brain.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P13221}.
