Usage

Uses

L-Glutamine synthetase may be used for the purification of proteases from Escherichia coli.

General Description

L-Glutamine Synthetase from bacteria shows dodecameric structure comprising of 12 active sites. Each active site termed bifunnel, has an ATP and glutamate binding sites. The dodecamer is stabilized by two hexameric rings.

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-glutamine synthetase catalyzes the condensation of L-glutamate and ammonia to L-glutamine. It is a degradative enzyme for glutamic acid.
