Summary
Enables orotate phosphoribosyltransferase activity. Involved in UMP biosynthetic process. Is expressed in body wall musculature; intestine; spermatheca; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in orotic aciduria and purine-pyrimidine metabolic disorder. Orthologous to human UMPS (uridine monophosphate synthetase).
