Name(S)-Ureidoglycolic acid
SpeciesSaccharomyces cerevisiae
StrainBaker's yeast
Description(S)-Ureidoglycolic acid is an hydrolysis product of allantoate in the allantoin degradation to glyoxylate pathway. Allantoin is a common product of purine degradation. Allantoin is rich in nitrogen and many organisms are able to degrade it and recycle it. Yeast can use allantoin as sole nitrogen source by degrading it to urea, CO2 and glyoxylate. Urea is further degraded to ammonia. [Biocyc PWY-5694]
