Function 1
Function descriptionArgininosuccinate lyase, enzyme Catalyzes the breakdown of argininosuccinate to produce arginine and fumarate. It is the fourth enzyme of the urea cycle. Argininosuccinase is involved in biosythesis of arginine in all species and production of urea in ureotelic organisms. 2-(N(omega)-L-arginino)succinate => fumarate + L-arginine Amino-acid biosynthesis, arginine biosynthesis
