In enzymology a pyridoxamine-pyruvate transaminase (EC 2.6.1.30) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionpyridoxamine + pyruvate pyridoxal + L-alanineThus the two substrates of this enzyme are pyridoxamine and pyruvate whereas its two products are pyridoxal and L-alanine.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically the transaminases which transfer nitrogenous groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is pyridoxamine:pyruvate aminotransferase.
