Enzyme Information

3.5.3.9
Allantoate deiminase.
based on mapping to UniProt P77425
Allantoate + H(2)O = (S)-ureidoglycine + NH(3) + CO(2).
-!- This enzyme is part of the ureide pathway, which permits certain organisms to recycle the nitrogen in purine compounds. -!- This enzyme, which liberates ammonia from allantoate, is present in plants and bacteria. -!- In plants it is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. -!- Requires manganese.
