This enzyme is involved in the de novo synthesis of CTP, a precursor of DNA, RNA and phospholipids. Catalyzes the ATP-dependent amination of UTP to CTP with either L-glutamine or ammonia as a source of nitrogen. This enzyme and its product, CTP, play a crucial role in the proliferation of activated lymphocytes and therefore in immunity. Full-length recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-591 from human CTPS1, fused to 6X His-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in Yeast.
