Gene ID: 435 | Gene type: protein coding

About ASL

Cytogenetic location: 7q11.21 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:66,075,819-66,093,576 (from NCBI)

This gene has 18 transcripts (splice variants), 214 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Broad expression in liver (RPKM 45.2), kidney (RPKM 25.5) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

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 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. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.
