32. The transamination reaction transfers an ̑-amino group from an amino acid to the ̑-keto position of an ̑-keto acid. What is the net result of this reaction? A. phosphorylation B. dephosphorylation C. oxidative deamination D. amino acid synthesis E. ̒-oxidation

Transdeamination involves the ̑̑-amino groups from nearly all amino acids being transferred to glutamate by transaminations, followed by release of NH4+ from glutamate by L-glutamate dehydrogenase. the combined actions of transaminases and glutamine synthetase. release of ̑̑-amino groups from nearly all amino acids by L-amino acid deaminases. release of ̑̑-amino groups from nearly all amino acids by L-amino acid dehydrogenases.
