'''Uridine 5’-monophosphate synthase''' (UMPS) is a bifunctional enzyme catalyzes the formation of uridine monophosphate (UMP). UMPS N-terminal domain is an '''orotate phosphoribosyl transferase''' (OPRT) subunit which catalyzes the addition of ribose-phosphate to orotate forming orotidine 5’-monophosphate (OMP). The C-terminal subunit is '''orotidine 5’-phosphate decarboxylase''' (OPD) which decarboxylates OMP to form UMP. | '''Uridine 5’-monophosphate synthase''' (UMPS) is a bifunctional enzyme catalyzes the formation of uridine monophosphate (UMP).
