Enzymes Involved in the Biosynthesis of Arginine from Ornithine in Maritime Pine (<i>Pinus pinaster</i> Ait.)

The amino acids arginine and ornithine are the precursors of a wide range of nitrogenous compounds in all living organisms. The metabolic conversion of ornithine into arginine is catalyzed by the sequential activities of the enzymes ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC), argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS...
