EC 3.5.2.17     
Accepted name: hydroxyisourate hydrolase
Reaction: 5-hydroxyisourate + H2O = 5-hydroxy-2-oxo-4-ureido-2,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylate

Other name(s): HIUHase; 5-hydroxyisourate hydrolase
Systematic name: 5-hydroxyisourate amidohydrolase
Comments: The reaction is the first stage in the conversion of 5-hydroxyisourate into S-allantoin. This reaction will also occur spontaneously but more slowly.
