Enzyme Information

2.7.2.2
Carbamate kinase.
based on mapping to UniProt P0A2X8
ATP + NH(3) + hydrogen carbonate = ADP + carbamoyl phosphate + H(2)O.
-!- The enzyme catalyzes the reversible conversion of carbamoyl phosphate and ADP to ATP and carbamate, which hydrolyzes to ammonia and hydrogen carbonate. -!- The physiological role of the enzyme is to generate ATP.
