Common NameL-aspartate 4-semialdehyde
DescriptionL-Aspartate-semialdehyde (CAS: 15106-57-7) is involved in both the lysine biosynthesis I and homoserine biosynthesis pathways. In the lysine biosynthesis I pathway, L-aspartate-semialdehyde is produced from a reaction between L-aspartyl-4-phosphate and NADPH, with phosphate and NADP+ as byproducts. The reaction is catalyzed by aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase. L-Aspartate-semialdehyde reacts with pyruvate to produce L-2,3-dihydrodipicolinate and water. Dihydrodipicolinate synthase catalyzes this reaction. In the homoserine biosynthesis pathway, L-aspartate-semialdehyde is produced from a reaction between L-aspartyl-4-phosphate and NADPH, with phosphate and NADP+ as byproducts. The reaction is catalyzed by aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase. L-Aspartate-semialdehyde reacts with NAD(P)H and H+ to form homoserine and NAD(P)+.
