We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

3bk0 is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
[PYR5_HUMAN] Defects in UMPS are the cause of orotic aciduria type 1 (ORAC1) [MIM:258900]. A disorder of pyrimidine metabolism resulting in megaloblastic anemia and orotic acid crystalluria that is frequently associated with some degree of physical and mental retardation. A minority of cases have additional features, particularly congenital malformations and immune deficiencies.[1]
