In the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway, N-carbamyl-L-aspartate (CA-asp) is converted to L-dihydroorotate (DHO) by dihydroorotase (DHOase). The mechanism of this important reaction was probed using primary and secondary 15N and 13C isotope effects on the ring opening of DHO using isotope

Dihydroorotase (DHO) is a zinc metalloenzyme that functions in the pathway for the biosynthesis of pyrimidine nucleotides by catalyzing the reversible interconversion of carbamoyl aspartate and dihydroorotate. A chemical mechanism was proposed on the basis of an analysis of the

Trypanosoma cruzi dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (TcDHODH) catalyzes the oxidation of l-dihydroorotate to orotate with concomitant reduction of fumarate to succinate in the de novo pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway. Based on the important need to characterize catalytic mechanism of TcDHODH, we have tailored
