CAS 9002-13-5
:Urease
Description:
Urease is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea into ammonia and carbon dioxide, playing a crucial role in the nitrogen cycle. It is primarily found in various organisms, including plants, bacteria, and fungi, and is particularly abundant in legumes. Urease is a metalloenzyme, meaning it requires metal ions, such as nickel, for its activity. The enzyme is composed of multiple subunits, which can vary in structure depending on the source organism. Urease exhibits optimal activity at specific pH levels, typically around neutral to slightly alkaline conditions. Its activity is influenced by temperature, substrate concentration, and the presence of inhibitors. Urease is significant in agricultural applications, as it can enhance soil fertility by facilitating nitrogen availability. Additionally, it has potential uses in medical diagnostics and bioremediation processes. Due to its role in urea metabolism, urease is also studied for its implications in certain diseases, such as urinary tract infections and gastric disorders.
