Protein attributes

Sequence length	389 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Utilization of purines as secondary nitrogen sources, when primary sources are limiting. Ref.1
Catalytic activity	Allantoate + H2O = (S)-ureidoglycolate + urea.
Pathway	Nitrogen metabolism; (S)-allantoin degradation; (S)-ureidoglycolate from allantoate (aminidohydrolase route): step 1/1.
Tissue specificity	Abundantly expressed in kidney and liver, but at much lower level is also present in brain, testis, intestine and lung. Ref.1
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the allantoicase family.
