The bifunctional enzyme uridine monophosphate (UMP) synthase catalyzes the last two steps in de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis. A genetic deficiency in the activity of this enzyme causes the inherited human disease orotic aciduria. We used a human cDNA probe to localize the gene for UMP synthase to human chromosome region 3q13 by the technique of in situ hybridization.
双功能酶尿苷单磷酸(UMP)合酶催化从头嘧啶生物合成的最后两步。该酶活性的遗传缺陷会导致遗传性人类疾病乳清酸尿症。我们使用人cDNA探针,通过原位杂交技术将UMP合酶基因定位到人类染色体区域3q13。
