urea cycle Gene Set

Dataset	GO Biological Process Annotations 2015
Category	structural or functional annotations
Type	biological process
Description	The sequence of reactions by which arginine is synthesized from ornithine, then cleaved to yield urea and regenerate ornithine. The overall reaction equation is NH3 + CO2 + aspartate + 3 ATP + 2 H2O = urea + fumarate + 2 ADP + 2 phosphate + AMP + diphosphate. (Gene Ontology, GO_0000050)
