- Allantoate deiminase
In
enzymology , an allantoate deiminase (EC number|3.5.3.9) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :allantoate + H2O ureidoglycine + NH3 + CO2
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are
allantoate and H2O, whereas its 3 products areureidoglycine , NH3, and CO2.This enzyme belongs to the family of
hydrolase s, those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds, specifically in linear amidines. The systematic name of this enzyme class is allantoate amidinohydrolase (decarboxylating). This enzyme is also called allantoate amidohydrolase. This enzyme participates inpurine metabolism .References
