Metabolism of Pyrimidine

Metabolism of Pyrimidine METABOLISM OF PYRIMIDINE  Biosynthesis of Pyrimidine- Its main site is liver. It takes place in cytoplasm and mitochondria organelle. Pyrimidine nucleotides are- Cytidine monophosphate (CMP) Uridine monophosphate (UMP) Thymidine monophosphate (TMP)  Precursors for de novo synthesis of pyrimidine are. Glutamins provides N3 Aspartic acid furnishes C4, C5, C6, and N1 CO2 provides C2  De Novo
