This study reveals the unique properties of a new l-asparaginase, indicating its potential in treating leukemia and food processing.

The novel l-asparaginase from Bifidobacterium thermophilum shows high specific activity of 554.82 IU/mg at 55 °C.
Compared to other l-asparaginases, it has significant structural similarities and maintains activity at a broad pH range.
The enzyme retains over 85% activity for 50 minutes at 37 °C, highlighting its stability and potential industrial applications.
This l-asparaginase demonstrates specificity for l-asparagine while being devoid of glutaminase activity, enhancing its therapeutic potential.

Ge et al. (2025) studied this question.
