General annotation (Comments)

Catalytic activity

2 ATP + L-glutamine + HCO3- + H2O = 2 ADP + phosphate + L-glutamate + carbamoyl phosphate. HAMAP-Rule MF_01210_B

Cofactor

Binds 4 manganese ions per subunit.

Pathway

Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-arginine biosynthesis; carbamoyl phosphate from bicarbonate: step 1/1. HAMAP-Rule MF_01210_B

Pyrimidine metabolism; UMP biosynthesis via de novo pathway; (S)-dihydroorotate from bicarbonate: step 1/3. HAMAP-Rule MF_01210_B

Subunit structure

Composed of two chains; the small (or glutamine) chain promotes the hydrolysis of glutamine to ammonia, which is used by the large (or ammonia) chain to synthesize carbamoyl phosphate. Tetramer of heterodimers (alpha,beta)4.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the CarB family.

Contains 2 ATP-grasp domains.
