Beschreibung

Orotidine is a decarboxylase inhibitor. It inhibits the enzyme that converts orotate to uridine and the enzyme that converts orotate to decarboxylase. Orotidine has been shown to inhibit the growth of opportunistic fungal organisms and may be useful in treating infections caused by these pathogens. Orotidine is an analytical method for measuring the activity of orotidase, which catalyzes conversion of orotate to uridine. The enzyme form of orotidase found in human erythrocytes is very sensitive to inhibition by picolinic acid, which is used as a substrate for this reaction.
