ATP + urea + HCO₃-

\rightleftharpoons

ADP + phosphate + urea-1-carboxylate

This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases, specifically those forming generic carbon-nitrogen bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is urea:carbon-dioxide ligase (ADP-forming). This enzyme participates in urea cycle and metabolism of amino groups. It employs one cofactor, biotin.
