TAIR Curator Summary:
ALD1 is a L-lysine alpha-aminotransferase. It is part of the pipecolic acid biosynthetic pathway, where it catalyzes the biochemical conversion of lysine to epsilon-amino-alpha-ketocaproic acid (KAC) which is subject to subsequent transamination, cyclization and isomerization to form 2,3-dehydropipecolic acid.
