Deamidation of asparagine is the spontaneous degradation of this residue into aspartic acid. The kinetics of this slow reaction is mainly dependent on the nature of the adjacent amino acid that follows asparagine in a peptide or protein primary sequence. In the homodimer triosephosphate isomerase (TPI), there are two…
