== Function == | |||
'''Aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase''' (ASADH) is an enzyme which is part of the biosynthesis of amino acids in bacteria, plants and fungi. It catalyzes the conversion of L-aspartate 4-semialdehyde (ASA) + phosphate + NADP to L-4-aspartyl phosphate + NADPH + H+. | '''Aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase''' (ASADH) is an enzyme which is part of the biosynthesis of amino acids in bacteria, plants and fungi.

== Structural highlights == | |||
ASADH contains 2 domains. The N terminal domain contains the active site and the NADP-binding site. The C terminal contains the homodimer intersubunit contacts. | |||
