Purification and properties of glutamate synthase and glutamate dehydrogenase from Bacillus megaterium [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1978 Bacillus megaterium N.C.T.C. no. 10342 exhibits glutamate synthetase (EC 2.6.1.53) and glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.4) activities. Concentrations of glutamate synthase were high when the bacteria were grown on 3mM-NH4Cl and low when they were grown on 100mM-NH4Cl, whereas glutamate dehydrogenase concentrations were higher when the bacteria were ...

Metabolic rewiring enables ammonium assimilation via a non‐canonical fumarate‐based pathway
Microbial BiotechnologyGlutamate serves as the major cellular amino group donor. In Bacillus subtilis, glutamate is synthesized by the combined action of the glutamine synthetase and the glutamate synthase (GOGAT).

Rhizobium etli Mutant Modulates Carbon and Nitrogen Metabolism in Phaseolus vulgaris Nodules
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2002 The aim of this study was to evaluate the biochemical events in root nodules which lead to increased yield when bean is inoculated with a Rhizobium etli mutant (CFN037) having increased respiratory capacity. CFN037-inoculated plants had 22% more nitrogen

Structural basis of proton translocation and force generation in mitochondrial ATP synthase
eLife, 2017 ATP synthases produce ATP by rotary catalysis, powered by the electrochemical proton gradient across the membrane. Understanding this fundamental process requires an atomic model of the proton pathway.
