Answer The second amino group introduced into urea is transferred from aspartate. This amino seid is generated in large quantities by transamination between oxaloacetate and gluta- mate (and many other amino acids), catalyzed by aspartate aminotransferase. Approximately ‘one half ofall the amino groups excreted as urea must pass through the aspartate aminotrans- {orase reaction, and liver contains higher levels ofthis aminotransferase than of any’ other. [Bj ® Te Case against the Higuld Protein Diet A weightreducing det healypromated some years ‘ago required the daily intake of “liquid protein” (soup of hydrolyzed gelatin), water, and an assortment of vitamins. All other food and drink were to be avoided.
