Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * Gene name: ASS1 * Ensembl ID: ENSG00000130707 * Protein name: ASSY_HUMAN * Pathway: Arginine biosynthetic process, Argininosuccinate metabolic process, Urea cycle * Function: Argininosuccinate synthase activity **Pathways and functions:** * Arginine biosynthetic process: ASS1 is involved in the production of argininosuccinic acid from arginine, a precursor molecule derived from dietary protein. * Argininosuccinate metabolic process: Argininosuccinate serves as a precursor for various metabolites, including citrulline, which is involved in the synthesis of carnitine and other amino acids. * Urea cycle: ASS1 is a key enzyme in the urea cycle, where it catalyzes the condensation of glutamine and oxaloacetate to form argininosuccinate. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the ASS1 gene have been linked to certain human diseases, including urea cycle disorders and certain types of cancer. * ASS1 inhibitors are being investigated as potential therapeutic agents for these disorders. * Understanding the role of ASS1 in argininosuccinate metabolism provides insights into the regulation of protein synthesis and urea cycle functions. **Additional notes:** * ASS1 is a highly conserved enzyme with homologs in other species. * It is expressed in relatively high levels in the liver and kidney. * Mutations in the ASS1 gene have been associated with a variety of human diseases, including urea cycle disorders, cancer, and developmental abnormalities.
