On the Substrate Specificity of Jack Bean Urease (Urea amidohydrolase, EC 3.5.1.5)

pH-Stat studies prove that N-methylurea, ethyl carbamate, and carbamoyl azide are not substrates for jack bean urease. Semicarbazide is a good substrate, showing Michaelis–Menten kinetics and stoichiometric formation of ammonia, carbonic acid, and hydrazine, and having a k cat of about [Formula: see...
