Orotidine 5'-monophosphate (OMP), also known as orotidylic acid, is a pyrimidine nucleotide{{Cite web |last=PubChem |title=Orotidine-5'-monophosphate |url=https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/160617 |access-date=2023-01-26 |website=pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov |language=en}} which is the last intermediate in the biosynthesis of uridine monophosphate.{{Cite web |title=UMPS uridine monophosphate synthetase [Homo sapiens (human)] - Gene - NCBI |url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=7372 |access-date=2023-01-26 |website=www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov}} OMP is formed from orotate and phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate by the enzyme orotate phosphoribosyltransferase.
In humans, the enzyme UMP synthase converts OMP into uridine 5'- monophosphate. If UMP synthase is defective, orotic aciduria can result.
