EC 2.6.1.112     
Accepted name: (S)-ureidoglycine—glyoxylate transaminase
Reaction: (S)-ureidoglycine + glyoxylate = N-carbamoyl-2-oxoglycine + glycine
Glossary: (S)-ureidoglycine = (2S)-(carbamoylamino)glycine
Other name(s): (S)-ureidoglycine—glyoxylate aminotransferase; UGXT; PucG
Systematic name: (S)-ureidoglycine:glyoxylate aminotransferase
Comments: A pyridoxal 5′-phosphate protein. The protein, found in bacteria, can use other amino-group acceptors, but is specific for (S)-ureidoglycine.

Other name(s): allantoate amidohydrolase
Systematic name: allantoate amidinohydrolase (decarboxylating)
Comments: This enzyme is part of the ureide pathway, which permits certain organisms to recycle the nitrogen in purine compounds. This enzyme, which liberates ammonia from allantoate, is present in plants and bacteria. In plants it is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. Requires manganese.
