EC 4.3.2.3     
Accepted name: ureidoglycolate lyase
Reaction: (S)-ureidoglycolate = glyoxylate + urea
For diagram of AMP catabolism, click here
Other name(s): ureidoglycolatase (ambiguous); ureidoglycolase (ambiguous); ureidoglycolate hydrolase (misleading); (S)-ureidoglycolate urea-lyase
Systematic name: (S)-ureidoglycolate urea-lyase (glyoxylate-forming)
Comments: This microbial enzyme is involved in the degradation of ureidoglycolate, an intermediate of purine degradation. Not to be confused with EC 3.5.1.116, ureidoglycolate amidohydrolase, which releases ammonia rather than urea.
