ENZYME entry: EC 3.5.1.38

Accepted Name
glutamin-(asparagin-)ase
Alternative Name(s)
glutaminase-asparaginase
L-ASNase/L-GLNase
L-asparagine/L-glutamine amidohydrolase
Reaction catalysed
  • H2O + L-glutamine <=> L-glutamate + NH4(+)
  • H2O + L-asparagine <=> L-aspartate + NH4(+)
Comment(s)
  • L-asparagine is hydrolyzed at 0.8 of the rate of L-glutamine.
  • The D-isomers are also hydrolyzed, more slowly. cf. EC 3.5.1.1 and EC 3.5.1.2.
