ID   2.6.1.126
DE   L-aspartate:5-guanidino-3-methyl-2-oxopentanoate transaminase.
CA   (3R)-5-guanidino-3-methyl-2-oxopentanoate + L-aspartate = (3R)-3-methyl-
CA   L-arginine + oxaloacetate.
CC   -!- Requires pyridoxal 5'-phosphate.
CC   -!- The enzyme, characterized from several bacterial species,
CC       participates in the biosynthesis of the rare amino acid (3R)-3-
CC       methyl-L-arginine.
CC   -!- The enzyme from Streptomyces arginensis also catalyzes the activity
CC       of EC 2.6.1.125.
