Leishmania infantum Asparagine Synthetase A Is Dispensable for Parasites Survival and Infectivity
A growing interest in asparagine (Asn) metabolism has currently been observed in cancer and infection fields. Asparagine synthetase (AS) is responsible for the conversion of aspartate into Asn in an ATP-dependent manner, using ammonia or glutamine as a nitrogen source. There are two structurally dis...
