Figures
- FIG. 1.
Urease catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea, yielding one molecule each of ammonia and carbamate.
- FIG. 2.
Dinuclear nickel active site of urease. The structure depicted is that of urease from Klebsiella aerogenes (PDB accession code 1FWJ). A carbamylated lysine residue (indicated by K217*) bridges the two metal ions (shown in green), and metal-bound waters are illustrated in red.
- FIG. 3.
The three activities of urea amidolyase, biotin carboxylase, urea carboxylase, and allophanate hydrolase, are shown.
