    Phenotypes of a mutant

  • auxotrophic for glutamine

    • The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • ATP + L-glutamate + NH4+ --> ADP + H+ + L-glutamine + phosphate (according to UniProt)

    • Protein family

  • glutamine synthetase family (single member, according to UniProt)

    • Kinetic information

  • K(M) for: Glu: 27 mM, ATP: 2.4 mM, ammonium: 0.18 mM; v(max): 3.7 mol/min/mg

    • [SW|Domains]

  • glutamate binding flap (aa 300 ... 306: protects unstable intermediates from abberant hydrolysis)

    • Modification

  • phosphorylated on ser/ thr/ tyr [Pubmed|16493705]
  • ''in vitro'' phosphorylated by [protein|23FF4A00C36EC1B7297F51A9EF3579B41F0B7EBA|PrkC] on Thr-26, Thr-147, Ser-207, and Thr-286 [Pubmed|20389117]
