Functional Family CTP synthase, putative, expressed

Enzyme Information

6.3.4.2
CTP synthase (glutamine hydrolyzing).
based on mapping to UniProt P17812
ATP + UTP + L-glutamine = ADP + phosphate + CTP + L-glutamate.
-!- The enzyme contains three functionally distinct sites: an allosteric GTP-binding site, a glutaminase site where glutamine hydrolysis occurs (cf. EC 3.5.1.2), and the active site where CTP synthesis takes place. -!- The reaction proceeds via phosphorylation of UTP by ATP to give an activated intermediate 4-phosphoryl UTP and ADP. -!- Ammonia then reacts with this intermediate generating CTP and a phosphate. -!- The enzyme can also use ammonia from the surrounding solution.
