UMPS - uridine monophosphate synthetase Gene
Also Known as OPRT
Species: Homo sapiens
About UMPS
This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants), 220 orthologues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in placenta (RPKM 3.1), esophagus (RPKM 2.8) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a uridine 5'-monophosphate synthase. The encoded protein is a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the final two steps of the de novo pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway. The first reaction is carried out by the N-terminal enzyme orotate phosphoribosyltransferase which converts orotic acid to orotidine-5'-monophosphate. The terminal reaction is carried out by the C-terminal enzyme OMP decarboxylase which converts orotidine-5'-monophosphate to uridine monophosphate. Defects in this gene are the cause of hereditary orotic aciduria. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
