Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** UMPS is a cytosolic enzyme, belonging to the pyrimidine biosynthesis pathway. It exhibits high substrate specificity, with a preference for orotate over other pyrimidine analogs. The enzyme is also notable for its ability to regulate its own activity through feedback inhibition by OMP. This regulatory mechanism ensures that UMPS is only active when necessary, preventing excessive pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis. **Pathways and Functions:** UMPS is integral to the de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis pathway, which is responsible for the production of pyrimidine nucleotides from scratch. This process involves the conversion of orotate into OMP, followed by the addition of ribose-1-phosphate and the subsequent formation of cytidine monophosphate (CMP) and uridine monophosphate (UMP). UMPS is also involved in the biosynthesis of orotidine-5'-phosphate decarboxylase (OMP decarboxylase), a key enzyme in the pyrimidine nucleotide salvage pathway. In addition to its role in pyrimidine biosynthesis, UMPS is also implicated in the cellular response to xenobiotics. Studies have shown that UMPS expression is upregulated in response to exposure to certain environmental toxins, suggesting a potential role in protecting cells against oxidative stress. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of UMPS has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer, where impaired pyrimidine biosynthesis can contribute to tumorigenesis. Mutations in the UMPS gene have been associated with certain cancer types, including leukemia and lymphoma. Furthermore, UMPS has been shown to play a critical role in the development of neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. The enzyme's involvement in pyrimidine biosynthesis suggests that dysregulation of UMPS may contribute to the accumulation of toxic pyrimidine metabolites in the brain, leading to neurodegeneration. In conclusion, UMPS is a vital enzyme in the de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis pathway, playing a crucial role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the mechanisms by which UMPS regulates pyrimidine biosynthesis and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target in various diseases. **Significantly Expressed Cells:** UMPS is expressed in a wide range of cell types, including germ cells, erythroid progenitor cells, placental villous trophoblasts, proerythroblasts, cardiac muscle myoblasts, oogonial cells, cerebral cortex GABAergic interneurons, forebrain radial glial cells, absorptive cells, and intestinal crypt stem cells of the colon. **Proteins:** UMPS_HUMAN (OMPdecase) is the human protein encoded by the UMPS gene. This protein is a cytosolic enzyme with a molecular weight of approximately 50 kDa, and is characterized by its ability to catalyze the conversion of orotate into OMP.
