Background Information
N-acetylglutamate synthase, also known as NAGS, is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the formation of N-acetylglutamate (NAG) from glutamate and acetyl coenzyme-A. NAGS is the key enzyme for regulating the hepatic urea cycle and is also highly expressed in the kidney and gut. Deficiency of NAGS leads to hyperammonemia due to decreased activity of CPSI deprived of its cofactor NAG(PMID:12459178,12754705).
