Protein name |
L-asparaginase |
Comment |
FUNCTION:Acts in asparagine catabolism. May be involved in astroglial production of L-aspartate, which can act as an excitatory neurotransmitter in some brain regions (By similarity).||CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:L-asparagine + H(2)O = L-aspartate + NH(3).||SUBCELLULAR LOCATION:Cytoplasm. Note=Midpiece of sperm tail.||ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS:Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=Q7L266-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=Q7L266-2; Sequence=VSP 028287; Note=No experimental confirmation available;||TISSUE SPECIFICITY:Expressed in brain, kidney, testis and tissues of the gastrointestinal tract. Present in sperm (at protein level). Over-expressed in uterine, mammary, prostatic and ovarian carcinoma.||INDUCTION:By 5-alpha-di-hydrotestosterone and progesterone.||SIMILARITY:Belongs to the Ntn-hydrolase family.||SEQUENCE CAUTION:Sequence=BAB15302.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; |
