ASS1 is involved in the urea cycle, which is a sequence of chemical reactions that is localized in liver cells. The urea cycle processes excess nitrogen that is generated as the body uses proteins. The surplus nitrogen is used to create a molecule called urea, which is excreted from the body in urine.
ASS1 Recombinant Human produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 432 amino acids (1-412 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 48.6 kDa. The ASS1 is fused to a 20 amino acids His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
| UniProt Protein Function: | ASS1: Defects in ASS1 are the cause of citrullinemia type 1 (CTLN1). Citrullinemia belongs to the urea cycle disorders. It is an autosomal recessive disease characterized primarily by elevated serum and urine citrulline levels. Ammonia intoxication is another manifestation. CTLN1 usually manifests in the first few days of life. Affected infants appear normal at birth, but as ammonia builds up in the body they present symptoms such as lethargy, poor feeding, vomiting, seizures and loss of consciousness. Less commonly, a milder CTLN1 form can develop later in childhood or adulthood. Belongs to the argininosuccinate synthase family. Type 1 subfamily. |

| NCBI Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the penultimate step of the arginine biosynthetic pathway. There are approximately 10 to 14 copies of this gene including the pseudogenes scattered across the human genome, among which the one located on chromosome 9 appears to be the only functional gene for argininosuccinate synthetase. Mutations in the chromosome 9 copy of this gene cause citrullinemia. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012] |
