General annotation (Comments)

Function	Catalyzes the transfer of succinyl-CoA to arginine to produce N(2)-succinylarginine By similarity.
Catalytic activity	Succinyl-CoA + L-arginine = CoA + N(2)-succinyl-L-arginine. HAMAP MF_01171
Pathway	Amino-acid degradation; L-arginine degradation via AST pathway; L-glutamate and succinate from L-arginine: step 1/5. HAMAP MF_01171
Induction	By nitrogen and carbon starvation, and arginine, via the argR and crp transcriptional regulators. Ref.2
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the arginine N-succinyltransferase family.
