• Above, amino groups are transferred to glutamate,
from which ammonium is produced, and then used to
make carbamoyl phosphate.
• Below, amino groups are transferred to produce
aspartate.

• Aspartate and

each deliver an
amino group to
the cycle.
• Notice that the

occur in the

• Hexameric glutamate dehydrogenase is is controlled
allosterically.
– High energy levels inhibit (ATP and GTP).
– Low energy levels activate (ADP and GDP).
• NADP+ can replace NAD+.
• NH4+ , which is toxic to humans, is produced in the
mitochondria and used to make carbamoyl phosphate.

Carbamoyl Phosphate Synthesis
(p. 645)
• Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase is in mitochondrial matrix.
• NH4+ is source of NH3.
• The hydrolysis of two ATP make this reaction essentially
irreversible.
4 • N-acetyl glutamate is an allosteric activator. (see S08L05)

• Fumarate is oxidized to oxaloacetate by Krebs cycle
enzymes, producing NADH.
• Oxaloacetate accepts an amino group instead of
being condensed with acetyl CoA.

Summary of Reactions and Energetics - 1
H20 + aa + NAD+  -keto acid + NH4+ + NADH + H+
and
H20 + fumarate + aa + NAD+  aspartate + -keto acid
+ NADH + H+
then
aspartate + NH4+ + HCO3- + 3 ATP 
urea + fumarate + 2 H20 + 2 ADP + AMP + 4 Pi + H+
Four high energy phosphate bond equivalents are
used for these reactions (- 4 ~P).
Two NADH are produced.

Summary of Reactions and Energetics - 2
Now consider NADH oxidation:
2 H+ + 2 NADH + O2 2 NAD+ + 2 H20
(+5 ~P)
The net reaction is then
2 aa + HCO3- + O2 
2 -keto acid + urea + H+ + 2 H20
(+1~P)

Hyperammonemia
• Normal blood [NH4+] is 10-40 mM.
• Deficiencies of carbamoyl phosphate synthetase or
of any enzyme in the urea cycle cause high [NH4+].
• Affects CNS and can lead to irreversible brain
damage.
• Treatment strategies depend on which enzyme is
deficient.

• Low dietary protein
reduces need for urea
cycle.

• Hippurate and phenylacetylglutamine are excreted.
• Amino groups to glycine and glutamine by transamination.
Ketogenic and Glucogenic Amino Acids
Fig. 23.21
• After removal of the amino group, the keto acids are used to make
13 Krebs cycle intermediates, pyruvate, acetyl CoA and acetoacetyl CoA.
Nitrogen for Oral Bacteria

urease
2 NH4+ + HCO3-
• Urea is a major source of nitrogen for oral
bacteria.
• It diffuses through most membranes and is
in saliva.
• Bacterial urease produces NH4+.
• Glutamate dehydrogenase incorporates
NH4+ into -keto acids to obtain amino
acids for bacterial growth.

Engineered Oral Bacteria to Fight Caries?
• Streptococcus Salivarius urease activity affects
oral microbial ecology.
• It produces NH3, which in addition to promoting
growth, neutralizes acids produces by other
bacteria.
• S. Salivarius urease gene was introduced into
Streptococcus mutans GS5. It was expressed
and during glucose metabolism reduced pH
decrease and duration.
