ENZYME entry: EC 6.3.4.6

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/6.3.4.6
Accepted Name
urea carboxylase
Alternative Name(s)
ATP--urea amidolyase
UALase
UCA
urea amidolyase
urea carboxylase (hydrolyzing)
urease (ATP-hydrolyzing)
Reaction catalysed
urea + hydrogencarbonate + ATP = urea-1-carboxylate + ADP + phosphate + H(+)
Comment(s)
  • The Saccharomyces cerevisiae enzyme (but not that from green algae) also catalyzes the reaction of EC 3.5.1.54, thus bringing about the hydrolysis of urea to CO2 and NH3.
  • The enzyme from the prokaryotic bacterium Oleomonas sagaranensis can also use acetamide and formamide as substrates.
  • Formerly EC 3.5.1.45.
