Verified step by step guidance

Identify the reaction in question: the conversion of citrulline and aspartate into argininosuccinate.

Understand that this reaction is part of the urea cycle, a series of biochemical reactions that produce urea from ammonia.

Recognize that enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up reactions without being consumed in the process.

Recall that the enzyme responsible for catalyzing the formation of argininosuccinate from citrulline and aspartate is known as argininosuccinate synthetase.

Differentiate between the given enzyme options by understanding their roles: Succinate dehydrogenase is involved in the citric acid cycle, argininosuccinate lyase breaks down argininosuccinate, and arginine oxidase is not involved in this reaction.
