Regulation of Urea Synthesis by Agmatine in the Perfused Liver
... The regulation of ureagenesis has posed a complex problem since the first description of the urea cycle by Krebs and Henseleit in 1932 (20). The first and most critical step in urea synthesis is the conversion of NH4+ and HCO3 - into carbamoyl phosphate by mitochondrial carbamoyl phosphate synthetas ...
