ADMA is a potent inhibitor of nitric-oxide (NO) synthase, and this activity provides mechanism through which the kidney regulates blood pressure. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20018850, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23023372, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24586340}. |Aminotran 3| |(R)-3-amino-2-methylpropionate-pyruvate transaminase activity| |L-alanine catabolic process, by transamination| |alanine-glyoxylate transaminase activity| |glycine biosynthetic process, by transamination of glyoxylate| |glyoxylate catabolic process| |glycine biosynthetic process| |L-alanine metabolic process| |L-alanine catabolic process| |alanine metabolic process| |pyruvate family amino acid metabolic process| |alanine catabolic process| |pyruvate family amino acid catabolic process| |glyoxylate metabolic process| |aldehyde catabolic process| |serine family amino acid biosynthetic process| |glycine metabolic process| |positive regulation of nitric oxide biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of nitric oxide metabolic process| |serine family amino acid metabolic process| |neurotransmitter biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of reactive oxygen species biosynthetic process| |cellular aldehyde metabolic process| |pyridoxal phosphate binding| |regulation of nitric oxide biosynthetic process| |alpha-amino acid biosynthetic process| |cellular amino acid biosynthetic process| |regulation of reactive oxygen species biosynthetic process| |neurotransmitter metabolic process| |positive regulation of reactive oxygen species metabolic process| |alpha-amino acid catabolic process| |monocarboxylic acid catabolic process| |cellular amino acid catabolic process| |regulation of reactive oxygen species metabolic process| |alpha-amino acid metabolic process| |organic acid catabolic process| |carboxylic acid catabolic process| |carboxylic acid biosynthetic process| |organic acid biosynthetic process| |cellular amino acid metabolic process| |regulation of neurotransmitter levels| |mitochondrial matrix| |small molecule catabolic process| |drug metabolic process| |monocarboxylic acid metabolic process| |small molecule biosynthetic process| |carboxylic acid metabolic process| |oxoacid metabolic process| |organic acid metabolic process| |organonitrogen compound catabolic process| |mitochondrion| |organonitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |small molecule metabolic process| |organic substance catabolic process| |cellular catabolic process| |positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp107|UMK57 0.6μM R03 exp107]]|1.7| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
