NCIt definition : Alpha-aminoadipic semialdehyde synthase, mitochondrial (926 aa, 102 kDa) is encoded
by the human AASS gene. This protein plays a role in the two step conversion of lysine
to alpha-aminoadipic semialdehyde.;
NCIt note : Alpha-aminoadipic semialdehyde synthase, mitochondrial has both lysine ketoglutarate
reductase (EC 1.5.1.8) and saccharopine dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.1.9) activity. (UniProt);
