In

enzymology, an agmatinase (EC 3.5.3.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

agmatine + H2O putrescine + urea

Thus, the two

substrates of this enzyme are agmatine and H2O, whereas its two products are putrescine and urea
.

This enzyme belongs to the family of

urea cycle and metabolism of amino groups
.
