| Reaction(IUBMB) |
cyanate + HCO3- + 2 H+ = NH3 + 2 CO2 (overall reaction) [RN: R10079];
(1a) cyanate + HCO3- + H+ = carbamate + CO2 [RN: R03546];
(1b) carbamate + H+ = NH3 + CO2 (spontaneous) [RN: R07316]

| Comment |
This enzyme, which is found in bacteria and plants, is used to decompose cyanate, which can be used as the sole source of nitrogen [6,7]. Reaction (1) can be considered as the reverse of 'carbamate = cyanate + H2O', where this is assisted by reaction with bicarbonate and carbon dioxide (see mechanism above) [2], and hence is classified in sub-subclass 4.2.1. Bicarbonate functions as a recycling substrate [2].
