General description

Subunit molecular weight: ~90,770
Composed of six subunits with total molecular weight: ~544,620
Urease is a multi-subunit nickel-dependent metalloenzyme. It is found abundantly in fungi, yeast, plants, and bacteria. It belongs to the superfamily of amidohydrolases and phosphotriesterases. Urease is also found in leguminous seeds.

Application

Urease from Canavalia ensiformis (Jack bean) has been used:
  • as a component of the molecular mass standard in electrophoresis
  • as a component of the standard in size-exclusion chromatography
  • as a reference in native-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Urease is an essential enzyme of the nitrogen cycle. It plays a role in degrading urea into ammonia and carbamate. Urease provides a source of nitrogen for growth to various organisms. It also plays a major role in seed germination and seed chemical defense.

Urease, a nickel-dependent metalloenzyme, is synthesized by plants, some bacteria, and fungi. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea into ammonia and carbon dioxide. Although the amino acid sequences of plant and bacterial ureases are closely related, some biological activities differ

Urea is the most popular and widely used nitrogenous fertilizer. High soil urease activity rapidly hydrolyses applied urea to ammonia which contributes to soil nitrogen (N) losses and reduces N use efficiency of crop plants. The ammonia losses can be

mTORC1 promotes cell growth in response to nutrients and growth factors. Insulin activates mTORC1 through the PI3K-Akt pathway, which inhibits the TSC1-TSC2-TBC1D7 complex (the TSC complex) to turn on Rheb, an essential activator of mTORC1. However, the mechanistic basis of how
