Record overview

MGPD IDMGP004145
Gene ID10157
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameaminoadipate-semialdehyde synthase
Gene Symbol AASS
SynonymsLKRSDH; LORSDH; LKR/SDH;
Alternate namesalpha-aminoadipic semialdehyde synthase, mitochondrial; alpha-aminoadipate semialdehyde synthase; aminoadipic semialdehyde synthase; lysine-2-oxoglutarate reductase; lysine-ketoglutarate reductase /saccharopine dehydrogenase;
Chromosome7
Map Location7q31.3
EC Number1.5.1.8
SummaryThis gene encodes a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the first two steps in the mammalian lysine degradation pathway. The N-terminal and the C-terminal portions of this enzyme contain lysine-ketoglutarate reductase and saccharopine dehydrogenase activity, respectively, resulting in the conversion of lysine to alpha-aminoadipic semialdehyde. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hyperlysinemia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
