URE — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoURE (BOLC102_C02P027700.1) on cabbage chromosome 2 encodes a urease enzyme, confirmed by urease activity, nickel binding, and multiple urease subunit domains (alpha, beta, gamma). The gene is associated with urea breakdown, localizes to the urease complex and cytosol, and has been linked to carbon, nitrogen, and chlorophyll content. It also carries annotations for toxin and lipid binding. Related genes in other species connect the family to nitrogen recycling and the inability to grow on urea when urease activity is absent.
