细菌尿素酶的生化和分子生物学特点

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology of Bacterial Ureases

摘要:

尿素酶属于镍金属酶, 能够分解尿素成氨和二氧化碳。细菌尿素酶在氮素循环和致病性方面有重要的作用。本文讨论了细菌尿素酶的生物化学和分子生物学性质, 并就尿素酶的活化和调控方式以及生物学效应进行阐述。

Abstract:

Ureases are nickel-containing enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of urea to carbon dioxide and ammonia. This brief review discusses the biochemistry and molecular biology of bacterial ureases and outlines its activation, regulation and biological effects.
