Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for ASNS(NM_001673.5) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the synthesis of asparagine. This gene complements a mutation in the temperature-sensitive hamster mutant ts11, which blocks progression through the G1 phase of the cell cycle at nonpermissive temperature. There are three alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein described for this gene.

- results suggest that the presence of MELAS and NARP mtDNA mutations elicits upregulation of CHOP and ASNS genes through the elevation of ATF4 expression and its binding to the amino acid regulatory element and nutrient-sensing response element-1
- RNA interference decreases capacity of mesenchymal stem cells to protect acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells from asparaginase, whereas enforced ASNS expression conferred enhanced protection.
