Saccharomyces cerevisiae (R64-1-1)
Description

Cell-wall L-asparaginase II involved in asparagine catabolism; expression induced during nitrogen starvation; ORF contains a short non-coding RNA that enhances expression of full-length gene; likely arose in via horizontal gene transfer from the wine yeast Wickerhamomyces anomalus or a close relative; reference strain S288C has four copies of ASP3; ASP3-3 has a paralog, ASP3-1, that arose from a segmental duplication [Source:SGD;Acc:S000004148]

Gene Synonyms

ASP3

Location

Chromosome XII: 482,549-483,637 reverse strand.

R64-1-1:BK006945.2
