L-arginine degradation I (arginase pathway)

Cañas RA, Villalobos DP, Díaz-Moreno SM, Cánovas FM, Cantón FR. Molecular and functional analyses support a role of Ornithine-{delta}-aminotransferase in the provision of glutamate for glutamine biosynthesis during pine germination. Plant Physiol. 2008 Sep;148(1):77–88. PMID: 18621980; PMCID: PMC2528089.; Funck D, Stadelhofer B, Koch W. Ornithine-delta-aminotransferase is essential for arginine catabolism but not for proline biosynthesis. BMC Plant Biol. 2008 Apr 17;8():40. PMID: 18419821; PMCID: PMC2377265.
