OTC - ornithine transcarbamylase
Function
Catalyzes the second step of the urea cycle, the condensation of carbamoyl phosphate with L-ornithine to form L-citrulline (PubMed:6372096, PubMed:8112735, PubMed:2556444). The urea cycle ensures the detoxification of ammonia by converting it to urea for excretion (PubMed:2556444).
