Amino acid length of protein: |
464 |
Function of the normal/non-mutated protein: |
This gene encodes a member of the lyase 1 family. The encoded protein forms a cytosolic homotetramer and primarily catalyzes the reversible hydrolytic cleavage of argininosuccinate into arginine and fumarate, an essential step in the liver in detoxifying ammonia via the urea cycle. |
Mutations implicated in causing the disorder: |
Mutations in this gene result in the autosomal recessive disorder argininosuccinic aciduria, or argininosuccinic acid lyase deficiency. A nontranscribed pseudogene is also located on the long arm of chromosome 22. |
Impact of mutations on the structure and/or functioning of the protein: |
Protein does not fold and interact with substrate properly |
