AccessionGenProp0639
Namearginine degradation via citrulline, ATP-generating
TypePATHWAY
DescriptionArginine may be degraded to generate ammonia, ATP and ornithine via citrulline and carbamoyl phosphate. The ornithine may be further processed via putrescine.
JCVI RoleAmino acids and amines
Parent PropertyGenProp0734: amino acid catabolism
GenProp0873: ion-motive antiporter cycles
