Catalytic ActivityATP + L-aspartate + L-glutamine + H(2)O = AMP + diphosphate + L-asparagine + L-glutamate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2573597}.
DiseaseAsparagine synthetase deficiency (ASNSD) [MIM:615574]: An inborn error of asparagine biosynthesis that results in a severe neurologic disorder characterized by microcephaly, severely delayed psychomotor development, progressive encephalopathy, cortical atrophy, and seizure or hyperekplexic activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24139043}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
PathwayAmino-acid biosynthesis; L-asparagine biosynthesis; L- asparagine from L-aspartate (L-Gln route): step 1/1.
SimilarityContains 1 asparagine synthetase domain. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 glutamine amidotransferase type-2 domain. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00609}.
