Aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In enzymology, an aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

L-aspartate 4-semialdehyde + phosphate + NADP⁺ $\rightleftharpoons$ L-4-aspartyl phosphate + NADPH + H⁺

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are L-aspartate 4-semialdehyde, phosphate, and NADP⁺, whereas its 3 products are L-4-aspartyl phosphate, NADPH, and H⁺.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-aspartate-4-semialdehyde:NADP+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating). Other names in common use include aspartate semialdehyde dehydrogenase, aspartic semialdehyde dehydrogenase, L-aspartate-beta-semialdehyde:NADP+ oxidoreductase, (phosphorylating), aspartic beta-semialdehyde dehydrogenase, and ASA dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in glycine, serine and threonine metabolism and lysine biosynthesis.
