Difference between Arginase and Ornithine

Arginase vs. Ornithine

Arginase (arginine amidinase, canavanase, L-arginase, arginine transamidinase) is a manganese-containing enzyme. Ornithine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid that plays a role in the urea cycle.

Similarities between Arginase and Ornithine

Arginase and Ornithine have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Amino acid, Arginine, Urea, Urea cycle.

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.
