Difference between Ammonia and Urea cycle

Ammonia vs. Urea cycle

Ammonia is a compound of nitrogen and hydrogen with the formula NH3. The urea cycle (also known as the ornithine cycle) is a cycle of biochemical reactions that produces urea ((NH2)2CO) from ammonia (NH3).

Similarities between Ammonia and Urea cycle

Ammonia and Urea cycle have 14 things in common (in Unionpedia): Amino acid, Carbamoyl phosphate, Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase, Hydrogen, Hyperammonemia, Kidney, Liver, Metabolic waste, Nitrogen, Ornithine transcarbamylase, Oxygen, Urea, Uric acid, Water.

Amino acid

Amino acids are organic compounds containing amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.

Liver

The liver, an organ only found in vertebrates, detoxifies various metabolites, synthesizes proteins, and produces biochemicals necessary for digestion.

Metabolic waste

Metabolic wastes or excretes are substances left over from metabolic processes (such as cellular respiration) which cannot be used by the organism (they are surplus or toxic), and must therefore be excreted.

Ornithine transcarbamylase

Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) (also called ornithine carbamoyltransferase) is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction between carbamoyl phosphate (CP) and ornithine (Orn) to form citrulline (Cit) and phosphate (Pi).
