amino acid- asparagine-asn-N
write an essay about its function in human biochemistry. The length of the essay should be 1000 words. You can use any resource to acquire information about your amino acid, but the writing must be entirely in your own words. The topics listed below need not all be covered but should orient you to what is expected. Remember we are seeking biochemical information at a molecular level, not just nutritional requirements. In the text of your essay and in a reference list cite at least three references that you used to answer this question.
Is this an essential or nonessential amino acid in humans and what is the difference?
If this amino acid is essential in humans how is it synthesized in other organisms?
If this amino acid is nonessential how is it synthesized in humans?
What are the characteristic features of the R-group of this amino acid?
Where would the amino acid normally occur in protein structure and why?
What function might the amino acid play in enzyme binding and catalysis?
Does the amino acid have a function as an intermediate in metabolism?
Does the amino acid serve as a precursor of other biological molecules?
