L-Asparagine anhydrous
L-Asparagine anhydrous is a guanine nucleotide-binding protein that binds to the response element of the human serum albumin gene. It has been shown to stimulate liver enzymes and increase the synthesis of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, which may lead to atherosclerosis. L-Asparagine anhydrous has been used in wastewater treatment as a nitrogen source for nitrification and denitrification. The enzyme activity of L-asparagine anhydrous has been shown to be high in tumour cells and is also present in solid tumours. This protein can be used as a model system for studying oligosaccharides because it is able to produce these molecules from glucose. L-Asparagine anhydrous is not active against carcinoma cell lines, but it does have some activity against solid tumours.
