Dear Jiyong Su,
The go-to program for this is currently jligand from CCP4. To define a link you load both compounds (ASP and your thing), delete the leaving atoms (don't forget the hydrogens), define the bond (right click to change the bond order if needed). Then you can save the definition (there is a refinement step here) as mmCIF and you also get a template LINK record to put in your PDB file.
Cheers,
Robbie
