The 3 substrates of this enzyme are L-aspartate, H2O, and O2, whereas its 3 products are oxaloacetate, NH3, and H2O2.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with oxygen as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-aspartate:oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating). This enzyme participates in alanine and aspartate metabolism and nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism. It employs one cofactor, FAD.
