Metabolic pathways of Arginine
Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Arginine is converted over two relevant pathways. In one pathway arginine is converted by Arginase 1 (Arg-1) to Urea and ornithine, which are precursors of polyamines and collagens. In the other pathway arginine is converted by NOS (nitric oxide synthase) to NO (nitric oxide) and citrulline. Citrulline is in turn recycled by argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS) to argininosuccinate and then by argininosuccinate lyase (ASL) to arginine again. Further ornithine isconverted to citrulline by ornithine transcarbamoylase (OTC). |
