In [[Biology:Enzymology|enzymology]], a '''1D-1-guanidino-3-amino-1,3-dideoxy-scyllo-inositol transaminase''' ({{EC number|2.6.1.56}}) is an [[Biology:Enzyme|enzyme]] that [[Chemistry:Catalysis|catalyzes]] the [[Chemistry:Chemical reaction|chemical reaction]]

:1D-1-guanidino-3-amino-1,3-dideoxy-scyllo-inositol + pyruvate <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> 1D-1-guanidino-1-deoxy-3-dehydro-scyllo-inositol + L-alanine

Thus, the two [[Biology:Substrate (biochemistry)|substrates]] of this enzyme are 1D-1-guanidino-3-amino-1,3-dideoxy-scyllo-inositol and pyruvate, whereas its two [[Chemistry:Product|products]] are 1D-1-guanidino-1-deoxy-3-dehydro-scyllo-inositol and L-alanine.

This enzyme belongs to the family of [[Biology:Transferase|transferase]]s, specifically the transaminases, which transfer nitrogenous groups.  The [[Biology:List of enzymes|systematic name]] of this enzyme class is '''1D-1-guanidino-3-amino-1,3-dideoxy-scyllo-inositol:pyruvate aminotransferase'''. Other names in common use include '''guanidinoaminodideoxy-scyllo-inositol-pyruvate aminotransferase''', and '''L-alanine-N-amidino-3-(or 5-)keto-scyllo-inosamine transaminase'''.
