CC   -!- FUNCTION: Cyanamide hydratase involved in the detoxification and/or
CC       utilization of cyanamide, a toxic nitrile compound distributed widely
CC       in the environment. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16173468,
CC       ECO:0000269|PubMed:18182434, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2034671,
CC       ECO:0000269|Ref.2}.
CC   -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC       Reaction=urea = cyanamide + H2O; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:23056,
CC         ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:16199, ChEBI:CHEBI:16698; EC=4.2.1.69;
CC         Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:16173468, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18182434,
CC         ECO:0000269|PubMed:2034671};
CC   -!- COFACTOR:
CC       Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105;
CC         Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:2034671};
CC   -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: Compounds that react with thiol groups, such as
CC       Ag+, p-chloromercuribenzoate, and iodoacetamide show a strong
CC       inhibitory effect on cyanamide hydratase activity. The enzymatic
CC       activity is also sensitive to chelating agents such as EDTA or o-
CC       phenanthroline, as well as to reagents containing structural elements
CC       of cyanamide, such as urea, dicyandiamide, azide, hydroxylamine,
CC       thiocyanate, or cyanate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2034671}.
CC   -!- BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES:
CC       Kinetic parameters:
CC         KM=27 mM for cyanamide {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2034671};
CC       pH dependence:
CC         Optimum pH is 7.7. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2034671};
CC       Temperature dependence:
CC         Optimum temperature is 55 degrees Celsius.
CC         {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2034671};
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Homohexamer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2034671}.
CC   -!- BIOTECHNOLOGY: Transgenic plants expressing CAH acquire resistance to
CC       toxic cyanamide (PubMed:16173468). Moreover, due to its innate ability
CC       to convert cyanamide to urea and the broad-spectrum antimicrobial
CC       activity of cyanamide, the CAH gene can be used to facilitate plant
CC       growth promotion and biocontrol of phytopathogens (Ref.2,
CC       PubMed:18182434, PubMed:17899261). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16173468,
CC       ECO:0000269|PubMed:17899261, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18182434,
CC       ECO:0000269|Ref.2}.
CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: This enzyme is highly specific for cyanamide.
CC       {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2034671}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the cyanamide dehydrase family. {ECO:0000305}.
