| 2.7.2.2 | ADP + carbamoyl phosphate |
The parasite actively transports arginine and ornithine, which are converted via the arginine dihydrolase pathway to citrulline and carbamoyl phosphate, resulting in the formation of ATP via carbamate kinase |
| 2.7.2.2 | ADP + carbamoyl phosphate |
carbamate kinase with an anabolic role. The extreme living conditions of the pyrococci may render unnecessary the enzymatic synthesis of carbamate by carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase with the associated expenditure of an extra ATP molecule, as a prelude to making carbamoyl phosphate, explaining the use of carbamate kinase for carbamoyl phosphate synthesis in this organisms |

| 2.7.2.2 | ATP + NH3 + CO2 |
multifunctional enzyme, involved in biosynthesis of putrescine |
| 2.7.2.2 | ATP + NH3 + CO2 |
provides carbamoyl phosphate which is the precursor of the synthesis of pyrimidines and arginine |
