| argininosuccinate lyase |
[EC 4.3.2.1] an enzyme of the lyase class that catalyzes the cleavage of argininosuccinate to form fumarate and arginine. The reaction is part of the urea cycle in the liver (see illustration at urea cycle, under cycle). Deficiency of the enzyme, an autosomal recessive trait, results in argininosuccinicaciduria. Called also argininosuccinase.
