Description of YJR103W: Minor CTP synthase isozyme (see also URA7); catalyzes the ATP-dependent transfer of the amide nitrogen from glutamine to UTP, forming CTP, the final step in de novo biosynthesis of pyrimidines; involved in phospholipid biosynthesis; URA8 has a paralog, URA7, that arose from the whole genome duplication[1][2][3][4][5]
