| Comments | This enzyme, which is found in bacteria and plants, is used to decompose cyanate, which can be used as the sole source of nitrogen [6,7]. Reaction (1) can be considered as the reverse of ‘carbamate = cyanate + H2O’, where this is assisted by reaction with bicarbonate and carbon dioxide (see mechanism above) [2], and hence is classified in sub-subclass 4.2.1. Bicarbonate functions as a recycling substrate [2]. |
