Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Car2p
Description	L-ornithine transaminase (OTAse); catalyzes the second step of arginine degradation, expression is dually-regulated by allophanate induction and a specific arginine induction process; not nitrogen catabolite repression sensitive; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; human homolog OAT complements yeast null mutant
GO Terms: Biological Process	level 6: arginine catabolic process level 6: ornithine metabolic process level 6: L-proline biosynthetic process level 7: arginine catabolic process to glutamate level 8: arginine catabolic process to proline via ornithine
GO Terms: Molecular Function	level 2: catalytic activity level 3: transferase activity level 4: identical protein binding level 5: transaminase activity level 5: pyridoxal phosphate binding level 6: ornithine-oxo-acid transaminase activity level 6: ornithine(lysine) transaminase activity
