Best Answer: ...the ammonia deposited in the mitochondria of hepatocytes (liver cells) is converted to urea in the urea cycle.. The urea cycle begins inside liver mitochondria.... - Lehninger: Principles of Biochemistry- 5th edition, 2008, p. 682. In mammals, a COMPLETE urea cycle functions only in liver, the major site of urea synthesis. - Biochemical, Physiologicalo, Molecular Aspects of Human Nutrition - 2nd edition, by Martha Stipanuk, 2006, p. 412. So, the answer is the liver because that is the ONLY organ in which the COMPLETE cycle occurs.
Urea is removed from the blood by the kidneys and excreted in the urine. In urea cycle disorders, nitrogen levels builds up in the blood as ammonia, which is a toxic substance. The medical term for this build-up of ammonia is hyperammonemia (elevated blood ammonia). Ammonia reaches the brain through circulation of the blood, where it can cause irreversible brain damage, coma and/or death.
