Note: When you enter a date in Microsoft Excel 97, or later and you enter only two digits for the year, Microsoft Excel enters the year as follows: 1  The years 2000 through 2029 if you type 00 through 29 for the year. For example, if you type 5/28/19, Microsoft Excel assumes the date is May 28, 2019.
transamination the process by which amino groups are transferred from one AMINO ACID to form another, using a keto acid as an intermediary. The mechanism takes place in the liver, and is important in the breakdown of excess amino acids to form keto acids and in the formation of new amino acids (perhaps not available in the diet) from keto acids.
Alanine transaminase is one of the two transaminases measured (Aspartate transaminase is the other) [edit on Wikidata] In medicine, the presence of elevated transaminases, commonly the transaminases alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST), may be an indicator of liver damage. Other terms employed include transaminasemia and transaminitis, although some sources consider the latter pathologically meaningless.
