Editing Urease (section)

== Importance ==
Urease is important because of its role in the [[Nitrogen cycle#:~:text=The nitrogen cycle is the,both biological and physical processes.|Nitrogen cycle]] as a key catalyst in the reaction converting urea to ammonium and CO<sub>2</sub>. Urease occurs as a [[soil enzyme]], likely because soil microorganisms benefit from the nitrogen made available by urea degradation in the form of ammonium.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Demoling |first=Fredrik |last2=Figueroa |first2=Daniela |last3=Bååth |first3=Erland |date=2007-10-01 |title=Comparison of factors limiting bacterial growth in different soils |url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0038071707001939 |journal=Soil Biology and Biochemistry |volume=39 |issue=10 |pages=2485–2495 |doi=10.1016/j.soilbio.2007.05.002 |issn=0038-0717}}</ref>
