	2.6.1.14
Description	Asparagine--oxo-acid aminotransferase.
Catalyzed reaction	L-asparagine + a 2-oxo acid = 2-oxosuccinamate + an amino acid.
Cofactor	Pyridoxal-phosphate.
Comments	The enzyme from rat liver organelles seems to be identical to serine-pyruvate aminotransferase (2.6.1.51) and alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase (2.6.1.44)[Noguchi & Fujiwara (1988) JBC 263, 182].
Organisms	-Metazoa
