Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Ura8p
Description	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; capable of forming cytoplasmic filaments termed cytoophidium, especially during conditions of glucose depletion; URA8 has a paralog, URA7, that arose from the whole genome duplication
GO Terms: Biological Process	level 7: pyrimidine nucleotide biosynthetic process level 7: glutamine metabolic process level 7: pyrimidine nucleobase biosynthetic process level 9: CTP biosynthetic process level 10: 'de novo' CTP biosynthetic process
GO Terms: Molecular Function	level 3: ligase activity level 4: identical protein binding level 4: nucleotide binding level 5: CTP synthase activity level 6: ATP binding
GO Terms: Cellular Component	level 3: cytoplasm level 3: cytoophidium level 6: fungal-type vacuole
