NITROGEN METABOLISM

animals plants fungi Nitrogen is essential for all organisms (in amino acids and nucleic acids). Most of the conversions between organic and inorganic nitrogen are catalyzed by bacterial and archaeal enzymes. oxidativereductive

Urea cycle: Lose two amino-N and a CO 2 Follow the N from carbamoyl-P (green arrow) and the N from aspartate (red arrow). How much energy does it take to remove two amino-nitrogens?

How many of the reactions that we have studied are represented in excretion of excess nitrogen?

Summary Nitrogen enters the biosphere through plants, fungi, but mainly bacteria and archaea Plants, fungi, and bacteria reduce nitrate nitrogen to ammonium Ammonium is incorporated into organic molecules by glutamate dehydrogenase and glutamine synthase/GOGAT Other amino acids are formed by transamination The urea cycle removes nitrogen from ammonia and alanine as urea
