Regulation of synthesis of glutamine synthetase by adenylylated glutamine synthetase.
We have examined three mutants of Klebsiella aerogenes whose genetic lesions (glnB, glnD, and glnE) are in loci unlinked to the structural gene for glutamine sythetase (glnA) and in which the control of both the level and state of adenylylation of glutamine synthetase is altered. Each mutation alters a different component of the adenylylation system of glutamine synthetase [L-glutamate:ammonia ...
متن کاملAssay for glutamine synthetase activity.
The use of phosphoenolpyruvate plus pyruvate kinase as an ATP-generating system in the assay for glutamine synthetase activity via the formation of gamma-glutamylhydroxamate from glutamate and hydroxylamine with crude tissue preparations is shown to give values far in excess of the true glutamine synthetase activity of the tissue. This is due to the generation of pyruvate, which reacts with hyd...
متن کاملOxidative Modification of Glutamine Synthetase
The first step in the proteolytic degradation of bacterial glutamine synthetase is a mixed function oxidation of one of the 16 histidine residues in the glutamine synthetase subunit (Levine, R. L. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 11823-11827). A model system, consisting of oxygen, a metal ion, and ascorbic acid, mimics the bacterial system in mediating the oxidative modification of glutamine syntheta...
متن کاملSubcellular location of chicken brain glutamine synthetase and comparison with chicken liver mitochondrial glutamine synthetase.
Chicken brain glutamine synthetase has been found to be localized in the cytosolic fraction of this tissue in contrast to its mitochondrial location in chicken liver. Despite this difference in subcellular distribution, the enzyme from brain exhibits the same molecular weight during sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, has the same isoelectric point, and is immunochemicall...
متن کاملMechanisms of Substrate Binding with Glutamine Synthetase
Equilibrium isotope exchange kinetics were used to investigate the sequences of substrate binding with ovine brain, pea seed, and Escherichia coli glutamine synthetases. Without exception, the relative rates of exchange are (glutamate % glutamine) > (NH3 % glutamine) > (Pi % ATP) N (ADP % ATP). This suggests that the rate of net turnover at saturating substrate levels is limited more strongly b...
