putrescine biosynthetic process from arginine via N-carbamoylputrescine

id: GO:0033390
name: putrescine biosynthetic process from arginine via N-carbamoylputrescine
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of putrescine, 1,4-diaminobutane, from other compounds, including arginine, via the intermediate N-carbamoylputrescine; in this pathway, arginine is converted to agmatine, and agmatine is converted to putrescine in two single enzymatic steps.
