IUBMB Enzyme Nomenclature

EC 1.14.11.39

Accepted name: L-asparagine hydroxylase

Reaction: L-asparagine + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = (2S,3S)-3-hydroxyasparagine + succinate + CO2

Other name(s): L-asparagine 3-hydroxylase; AsnO

Systematic name: L-asparagine,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase (3-hydroxylating)

Comments: Requires Fe2+. The enzyme is only able to hydroxylate free L-asparagine. It is not active toward D-asparagine. The β-hydroxylated asparagine produced is incorporated at position 9 of the calcium-dependent antibiotic (CDA), an 11-residue non-ribosomally synthesized acidic lipopeptide lactone.
