Carbamoyl phosphate synthase is an enzyme which catalyzes a reactions which produces carbamoyl phosphate

There are two different forms which serve very different functions:

• Carbamoyl phosphate synthase I (mitochondria, urea cycle)
• Carbamoyl phosphate synthase II (cytosol, pyrimidine metabolism)
