Description générale

Subunit molecular weight: ~90,770
Composed of six subunits with total molecular weight: ~544,620
Urease is a nickel-dependent metalloenzyme , found in various plants, bacteria, fungi, and algae. It contains two distinct subunits-UreA(26.5 kDa) and UreB (60.3–61.6 kDa).

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Urease aids in the bioavailability of nitrogen in plants. It is implicated in defense mechanism and exhibits insecticidal activity. In addition, urease exhibits antifungal activity by retarding growth and affecting membrane integrity of filamentous fungi and yeasts.
Urease was shown to induce vacuolation in Hela cells, an effect dependent on the ability of urease to convert urea to ammonia.

Définition de l'unité

One micromolar unit will liberate 1.0 μmole of NH3 from urea per min at pH 7.0 at 25 °C. It is equivalent to 1.0 I.U. or 0.054 Sumner unit (1.0 mg ammonia nitrogen in 5 minutes at pH 7.0 at 20 °C)

A pH-variation study of jack bean (Canavalia ensiformis) urease steady-state kinetic parameters and of the inhibition constant of boric acid, a urease competitive inhibitor, was performed using both noninhibitory organic (MES, HEPES and CHES) and inhibitory inorganic (phosphate) buffers, in

Urease is a metalloenzyme essential for the survival of Helicobacter pylori in acidic gastric environment. Maturation of urease involves carbamylation of Lys219 and insertion of two nickel ions at its active site. This process requires GTP hydrolysis and the formation

Ureases catalyze the hydrolysis of urea into NH3 and CO2. They are synthesized by plants, fungi and bacteria but not by animals. Ureases display biological activities unrelated to their enzymatic activity, i.e., platelet and neutrophil activation, fungus inhibition and insecticidal

Ureases are metalloenzymes involved in defense mechanisms in plants. The insecticidal activity of Canavalia ensiformis (jack bean) ureases relies partially on an internal 10kDa peptide generated by enzymatic hydrolysis of the protein within susceptible insects. A recombinant version of this

Probiotics and Human Health

Today, diverse studies report the benefits of probiotics, such as inhibitory effects on pathogens, aid in the management or prevention of chronic intestinal inflammatory diseases or atopic syndromes, and support to the immune system. Potential beneficial applications abound, researchers continue to evaluate the effictiveness and clarify the mechanisms of action of probiotics.
