Protein attributes

Sequence length	308 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Acts in asparagine catabolism. May be involved in astroglial production of L-aspartate, which can act as an excitatory neurotransmitter in some brain regions By similarity.
Catalytic activity	L-asparagine + H2O = L-aspartate + NH3.
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm By similarity. Note: Midpiece of sperm tail By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the Ntn-hydrolase family.
