Facts (generated by robot; please edit if you find it inaccurate)

  • Like glutamine, asparagine is important in the metabolism of toxic ammonia in the body.
  • Apoplastic oxidation of L-asparagine is involved in the control of the green algal endophyte Acrochaete operculata Correa & Nielsen by the red seaweed Chondrus crispus Stackhouse.
  • JaMM 1 JaMM 2 Asparagine Asparagine is a non-essential amino acid and is the beta-amide of aspartic acid.
  • This makes it highly unlikely that the Asparagine is glycosylated, presumably due to co 428 nformational constraints.
  • The amide group of this asparagine is buried and forms two similar intramolecular hydrogen bonds with a neighboring peptide group to anchor a loop on the surface of all three proteins.
