Description générale

Subunit molecular weight: ~90,770
Composed of six subunits with total molecular weight: ~544,620
Urease is a nickel-dependent metalloenzyme , found in various plants, bacteria, fungi, and algae. It contains two distinct subunits-UreA(26.5 kDa) and UreB (60.3–61.6 kDa).

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Urease aids in the bioavailability of nitrogen in plants. It is implicated in defense mechanism and exhibits insecticidal activity. In addition, urease exhibits antifungal activity by retarding growth and affecting membrane integrity of filamentous fungi and yeasts.
Urease was shown to induce vacuolation in Hela cells, an effect dependent on the ability of urease to convert urea to ammonia.

Définition de l'unité

One micromolar unit will liberate 1.0 μmole of NH3 from urea per min at pH 7.0 at 25 °C. It is equivalent to 1.0 I.U. or 0.054 Sumner unit (1.0 mg ammonia nitrogen in 5 minutes at pH 7.0 at 20 °C)

A pH-variation study of jack bean (Canavalia ensiformis) urease steady-state kinetic parameters and of the inhibition constant of boric acid, a urease competitive inhibitor, was performed using both noninhibitory organic (MES, HEPES and CHES) and inhibitory inorganic (phosphate) buffers, in

The resolution of cryo-EM reconstructions is fundamentally limited by the Nyquist frequency, which is half the sampling frequency of the detector and depends upon the magnification used. In principle, super-resolution imaging should enable reconstructions to surpass the physical Nyquist limit

Recent studies showed that hyperammonaemia caused many of the metabolic changes in portacaval-shunted rats, a model of hepatic encephalopathy. These changes included a depression in the cerebral metabolic rate of glucose (CMRGlc), an indication of decreased brain function. 2. The

Concentrated broth culture supernatants from 50 to 60% of Helicobacter pylori strains induce eukaryotic cell vacuolation in vitro. A quantitative assay for cell vacuolation was developed on the basis of the rapid uptake of visibly vacuolated HeLa cells was significantly

The pathogen Helicobacter pylori requires two nickel-containing enzymes, urease and [NiFe]-hydrogenase, for efficient colonization of the human gastric mucosa. These enzymes possess complex metallocenters that are assembled by teams of proteins in multistep pathways. One essential accessory protein is the
