Definition of asnA

• Curated proteins or TIGRFams with EC 6.3.1.1
• Curated sequence A4I213: asparagine synthase (glutamine-hydrolysing) (EC 6.3.5.4)
• Ignore hits to items matching EC 6.3.5.4 when looking for 'other' hits
• Ignore hits to CH_123066 when looking for 'other' hits (asparagine synthetase)
• Comment: In BRENDA, A4I213 (asnA) is misannotated as asnB. Many asparagine synthases are bifunctional (obtaining nitrogen from either ammonia or glutamine) so similarity to EC 6.3.5.4 is ignored. CH_123066 has a vague annotation and it is not clear if it is actually characterized.
