Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
ATP + L-aspartate + L-glutamine + H2O = AMP + diphosphate + L-asparagine + L-glutamate a model for the role of the catalytic triad in transferring nitrogen from Gln to Asp. An alternative catalytic mechanism is proposed, which obviates the participation of a histidine residue in the reaction Escherichia coli
