Protein name

RecName: Full=Ureidoglycolate hydrolase; EC=3.5.3.19;

Gene name

allA

FUNCTION: Involved in the anaerobic utilization of allantoin. Reinforces the induction of genes involved in the degradation of allantoin and glyoxylate by producing glyoxylate (By similarity).

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: (S)-ureidoglycolate + H(2)O = glyoxylate + 2 NH(3) + CO(2).

PATHWAY: Nitrogen metabolism; (S)-allantoin degradation; glyoxylate from (S)-ureidoglycolate: step 1/1.

SUBUNIT: Homodimer (By similarity).

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ureidoglycolate hydrolase family.

Hydrolase, Purine metabolism.

GO:0004848; Molecular function: ureidoglycolate hydrolase activity.
GO:0006145; Biological process: purine base catabolic process.
