Description
Asparaginase (EC 3.5.1.1, USAN) or Colaspase (BAN) is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of asparagine to aspartic acid. Asparaginases are enzymes expressed and produced by microorganisms.
Abbr
L-Asparaginase, Recombinant (Guinea pig)
Form
25 mM Tris pH7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 2 mM DTT, 1 mM EDTA
Enzyme Commission Number
EC 3.5.1.1
Unit Definition
One unit of guinea pig L-asparaginase converts 1.0 µmole of Asn to Asp per minute at pH 7.5 at 37°C, as measured by a coupled enzyme system with 2 mM Asn as substrate.
