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 کاملRegulation of glutamine synthetase. V. Partial purification and properties of glutamine synthetase from Bacillus licheniformis.
The glutamine synthetase of Bacillus licheniformis has been obtained at about 15% purity. Sucrose gradient centrifugation gave a molecular weight value of approximately 612,000. Both l- and d-glutamate can be utilized as substrates in the biosynthetic reaction, although the l isomer was five times more active. The requirement for adenosine triphosphate (ATP) can be partially replaced by guanosi...
متن کاملRegulation of glutamine synthetase. VI. Interactions of inhibitors for Bacillus licheniformis glutamine synthetase.
The relationships of five feedback inhibitors for the Bacillus licheniformis glutamine synthetase were investigated. The inhibitors were distinguishable by differences in their competitive relationship for the substrates of the enzyme. Mixtures of l-glutamine and adenosine-5'-monophosphate (AMP) or histidine and AMP caused synergistic inhibition of glutamine synthesis. Histidine, alanine, and g...
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 کاملEvolution of glutamine synthetase in vertebrates: multiple glutamine synthetase genes expressed in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss).
Glutamine synthetase (GSase) is a key enzyme in nitrogen metabolism and encoded by a single gene in mammals. Using PCR cloning techniques, including RT-PCR from total RNA and PCR from a cDNA library, we find evidence of four expressed GSase mRNAs for the tetraploid rainbow trout. For two of these mRNAs (Onmy-GS01, -GS02) we characterize the full-length coding regions, and for two others (Onmy-G...
