<strong>Description</strong>

</h4>
</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>The ASNS gene encodes asparagine synthetase (EC 6.3.5.4), an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of ammonia from glutamine to aspartic acid to form asparagine. It is expressed in most mammalian cells (summary by Zhang et al., 1989 and Ruzzo et al., 2013). </p>

<strong>Cloning and Expression</strong>
</span>
</h4>
</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Greco et al. (1987) cloned human ASNS based on its ability to complement ts11, a temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant of the BHK hamster cell line that at the nonpermissive temperature is blocked in progression through the G1 phase of the cell growth cycle. The gene was transcribed into an mRNA of 2 kb that was expressed in all human, hamster, and mouse cell lines tested. It encodes a protein of about 550 amino acids. </p><p>Asns is highly expressed in the adult mouse brain. Ruzzo et al. (2013) found that Asns is also expressed in the developing embryonic mouse brain in the cortical plate and the ventricular and subventricular zones where neural progenitors reside. </p>

<strong>Gene Structure</strong>
</span>
</h4>
</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Zhang et al. (1989) demonstrated that the ASNS gene spans 35 kb and contains 13 exons. The 5-prime upstream region of this gene, like other housekeeping genes, lacks conventional TATA and CAAT boxes. Both the human and the hamster genes have a high 5-prime G+C content which may play a role in expression through DNA methylation. </p>

<strong>Mapping</strong>
</span>
</h4>
</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>The gene for ASNS has been assigned to chromosome 7 by enzymatic analyses of human/hamster hybrids (Arfin et al., 1983). Lambert et al. (1986) confirmed this assignment with molecular probes. Using a genomic probe, Greco et al. (1989) found that the ts11 locus is derived from the long arm of human chromosome 7, proximal to the TCRB locus (see 186930). In situ hybridization mapped the locus more precisely to chromosome 7q21-q31. Two other members of the gene family detected by the ts11 probe were mapped to chromosomes 8pter-q24 and 21pter-q22. </p><p>Heng et al. (1994) refined the localization of the ASNS gene to chromosome 7q21.3 by fluorescence in situ hybridization. </p>

<strong>Gene Function</strong>

<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Siu et al. (2002) presented evidence that ATF4 (604064) binds nutrient-sensing response element-1 (NSRE1) in the human ASNS gene and activates ASNS transcription in response to nutrient stress. </p>

<p>In 9 patients from 4 unrelated families with asparagine synthetase deficiency (ASNSD; 615574), Ruzzo et al. (2013) identified 3 different homozygous or compound heterozygous missense mutations in the ASNS gene (108370.0001-108370.0003). The mutations were found by whole-exome sequencing and segregated with the disorder in all families. The phenotype was characterized by microcephaly, severely delayed psychomotor development, progressive encephalopathy, and seizure or hyperekplexic activity. Brain imaging showed cortical atrophy, enlarged ventricles, and cortical dysplasia. Affected individuals had onset in utero or at birth, and 6 died in infancy. Functional studies were not performed, but cellular studies showed that 2 of the mutant proteins were expressed at lower levels compared to wildtype and the third mutant protein was expressed at higher levels than wildtype. Two patients had decreased levels of asparagine, whereas a third had increased levels of glutamine and aspartic acid. Ruzzo et al. (2013) postulated a loss-of-function effect. Ruzzo et al. (2013) suggested that the brain is responsible for local de novo synthesis of asparagine, which may explain why the phenotype was neurologically restricted. Brain accumulation of aspartate and glutamate may result in increased excitability, seizure activity, and neuronal damage. </p><p>In 2 sisters with ASNSD from a consanguineous Indian family, Sun et al. (2017) identified a homozygous missense mutation in the ASNS gene (R340H; 108370.0004). The mutation, which was found by whole-exome sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing, segregated with the disorder in the family. </p><p>By whole-exome sequencing of an archived newborn blood spot, Abhyankar et al. (2018) identified compound heterozygous mutations in the ASNS gene (G366D, 108370.0005; V243A, 108370.0006). The infant, who died at 15 months of age without a specific diagnosis, had typical findings consistent with asparagine synthetase deficiency. </p><p>In a girl with ASNSD from a nonconsanguineous Indian family, Gupta et al. (2017) identified a homozygous missense mutation in the ASNS gene (A380S; 108370.0007). The mutation, which was found by whole-exome sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing, segregated with the disorder in the family. </p><p>Sacharow et al. (2018) identified a homozygous mutation in the ASNS gene (R49Q; 108370.0008) in 2 sibs, born to consanguineous Emirati parents, with ASNSD.

<p>In affected members of 2 Iranian Jewish families with asparagine synthetase deficiency (ASNSD; 615574), Ruzzo et al. (2013) identified a homozygous c.1084T-G transversion in the ASNS gene, resulting in a phe362-to-val (F362V) substitution at a highly conserved residue. The mutation was found by whole-exome sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing. The mutation segregated with the disorder in the family and was not found in the dbSNP (build 135), 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Sequencing Project databases or in 1,160 controls or 261 in-house exomes. It was found in 1 of 80 ancestry-matched controls, yielding a carrier frequency of 0.0125 in individuals of Iranian Jewish ancestry. Haplotype analysis indicated a founder effect. In vitro functional expression studies showed decreased amounts of mutant ASNS protein in HEK293 and COS-7 cells compared to wildtype. Glutamine and aspartic acid were increased in patients from 1 of the families. Ruzzo et al. (2013) postulated a loss-of-function effect. </p>

<p>In 3 male sibs, born of consanguineous Bangladeshi parents, with asparagine synthetase deficiency (ASNSD; 615574), Ruzzo et al. (2013) identified a homozygous c.1648C-T transition in the ASNS gene, resulting in an arg550-to-cys (R550C) substitution. Three male sibs from a French Canadian family with the disorder were found to be compound heterozygous for R550C and a c.17C-A transversion, resulting in an ala6-to-glu (A6E; 108370.0003) substitution. Both mutations occurred at highly conserved residues. The mutations, which were found by whole-exome sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing, segregated with the disorder in both families. Neither mutation was found in the dbSNP (build 135), 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Sequencing Project databases or in 1,160 controls, 169 in-house exomes, or 300 ancestry-matched controls. In vitro functional expression studies in HEK293 and COS-7 cells showed decreased amounts of mutant A6E protein compared to wildtype, whereas the mutant R550C protein was increased compared to wildtype. Asparagine levels were decreased in 1 patient from each family. Ruzzo et al.

To ensure long-term funding for the OMIM project, we have diversified
our revenue stream. We are determined to keep this website freely
accessible. Unfortunately, it is not free to produce. Expert curators
review the literature and organize it to facilitate your work. Over 90%
of the OMIM's operating expenses go to salary support for MD and PhD
science writers and biocurators. Please join your colleagues by making a
donation now and again in the future. Donations are an important
component of our efforts to ensure long-term funding to provide you the
information that you need at your fingertips.
