    …ornithine transcarbamoylase; the products are citrulline and inorganic phosphate [31]. Citrulline and aspartate formed from amino acids via step [26b] react to form argininosuccinate [32]; argininosuccinic acid synthetase catalyzes the reaction. Argininosuccinate splits into fumarate and arginine during a reaction catalyzed by argininosuccinase
