Ureases: Historical aspects, catalytic, and non-catalytic properties – A review
Abstract
Urease (urea amidohydrolase, EC 3.5.1.5) is a nickel-containing enzyme produced by plants, fungi, and bacteria that catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea into ammonia and carbamate. Urease is of historical importance in Biochemistry as it was the first enzyme ever to be crystallized (1926). Finding nickel in urease’s active site (1975) was the first indication of a biological role for this metal. In this review, historical and structural features,...
