Select the correct class of enzyme for each of these reactions.
-L-aspartic acid + a-ketoglutarate → oxaloacetic acid + L-Glutamate
A)oxidoreductase
B)lyase
C)isomerase
D)transferase
E)hydrolase
F)ligase

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The reaction involves transferring an amino group (from L-aspartic acid) to a ketoacid (alpha-ketoglutarate) to form a new amino acid (L-glutamate) and a new ketoacid (oxaloacetic acid), which indicates that it is a transferase enzyme.
