Understanding the role of Alanine Aminotransferase in liver function
Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), also known as Alanine transaminase, is a crucial enzyme largely found in the liver. It plays a significant role in the metabolism of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. ALT’s primary function involves converting alanine, an amino acid, and alpha-ketoglutarate into pyruvate and glutamate, respectively. ThisContinue Reading
