UniProt functional annotation for Q8A1E9

UniProt code: Q8A1E9.

Organism:		Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron (strain ATCC 29148 / DSM 2079 / NCTC 10582 / E50 / VPI-5482).
Taxonomy:		Bacteria; Bacteroidetes; Bacteroidia; Bacteroidales; Bacteroidaceae; Bacteroides.
Function:		Catalyzes the transfer of the carbamoyl group from carbamoyl phosphate to the delta-amino group of N(2)-succinyl-L-ornithine to produce N(2)-succinyl-L-citrulline. Is essential for arginine biosynthesis. Has no activity with either L-ornithine or L-aspartate as substrate. Has also no detectable AOTCase activity, being unable to convert N(2)-acetyl-L-ornithine to N(2)-acetyl-L-citrulline. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:E1WKT5}.
Catalytic activity:		Reaction=carbamoyl phosphate + N(2)-succinyl-L-ornithine = H(+) + N(2)- succinyl-L-citrulline + phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:25884, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:43474, ChEBI:CHEBI:58228, ChEBI:CHEBI:58514, ChEBI:CHEBI:58862; EC=2.1.3.11; Evidence={ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:E1WKT5}; PhysiologicalDirection=left-to-right; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:25885; Evidence={ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:E1WKT5};
Pathway:		Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-arginine biosynthesis. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:E1WKT5}.
Subunit:		Homotrimer. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:E1WKT5}.
Similarity:		Belongs to the aspartate/ornithine carbamoyltransferase superfamily. SOTCase family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02235, ECO:0000305}.
