CC   -!- FUNCTION: Catalyzes the transfer of succinyl-CoA to arginine to produce
CC       N(2)-succinylarginine.
CC   -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC       Reaction=L-arginine + succinyl-CoA = CoA + H(+) + N(2)-succinyl-L-
CC         arginine; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:15185, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:32682,
CC         ChEBI:CHEBI:57287, ChEBI:CHEBI:57292, ChEBI:CHEBI:58241;
CC         EC=2.3.1.109;
CC   -!- PATHWAY: Amino-acid degradation; L-arginine degradation via AST
CC       pathway; L-glutamate and succinate from L-arginine: step 1/5.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the arginine N-succinyltransferase family.
