Interaction Information:

Comment N-acetylglutamate synthase (NAGS) is localized in mitochondrion. NAGS catalyzes the conversion of glutamate and acetyl Co-enzyme A to N-acetylglutamate, which serves as allosteric activator of the first enzyme of the urea cycle, carbamoylphosphate synthetase 1. (cited information)
