ID 3.5.3.21 DE methylenediurea deaminase. AN methylenediurease. CA 2 H(+) + 2 H2O + methylenediurea = CO2 + N-(hydroxymethyl)urea + CA 2 NH4(+). CC -!- The methylenediurea is hydrolyzed and decarboxylated to give an CC aminated methylurea, which then spontaneously hydrolyzes to CC hydroxymethylurea. CC -!- The enzyme from Ochrobactrum anthropi also hydrolyzes CC dimethylenetriurea and trimethylenetetraurea as well as CC ureidoglycolate, which is hydrolyzed to urea and glyoxylate, CC and allantoate, which is hydrolyzed to ureidoglycolate, ammonia and CC carbon dioxide. //
