Molecular evolution of urea amidolyase and urea carboxylase in fungi
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Urea amidolyase breaks down urea into ammonia and carbon dioxide in a two-step process, while another enzyme, urease, does this in a one step-process. Urea amidolyase has been found only in some fungal species among eukaryotes. It co...
