The role of cytosolic glutamine synthetase in wheat [PDF]
The definitive version is available at www.blackwell-synergy.comThe role of glutamine synthetase (GS; EC 6.3.1.2) was studied in wheat. GS isoforms were separated by HPLC and the two major leaf isoforms (cytosolic GS1 and chloroplastic GS2) were found to

Glutamine versus ammonia utilization in the NAD synthetase family. [PDF]
NAD is a ubiquitous and essential metabolic redox cofactor which also functions as a substrate in certain regulatory pathways. The last step of NAD synthesis is the ATP-dependent amidation of deamido-NAD by NAD synthetase (NADS).

Leukemia Cells Resistant to Glutamine Deprivation Express Glutamine Synthetase Protein
Objective: Low glutamine levels have been shown in tumor environments for several cancer subtypes. Therefore, it has been suggested that cancer cells rewire their metabolism to adopt low nutrient levels for survival and proliferation.

Formation of Glutamine and Activities of Glutamine Synthetase in Goats
When goats were administered orally with urea in a dose of 0.3 g per kg of body weight, the blood concentration of glutamine-N in the jugular vein increased to about 6μg per ml of plasma, reflecting the removal of ammonia by forming glutamine in the animal body. The blood glutamine seemed to undergo a more rapid turnover than the blood urea.

Glutamine synthetase is necessary for sarcoma adaptation to glutamine deprivation and tumor growth
Despite a growing body of knowledge about the genomic landscape and molecular pathogenesis of sarcomas, translation of basic discoveries into targeted therapies and significant clinical gains has remained elusive.

Proteolytic Inactivation of Glutamine Synthetase in Extracts From Wheat Leaves: Effects of pH, Inorganic Ions and Metabolites [PDF]
Glutamine synthetase in extracts from young wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) leaves was quite stable at pH 7.0-9.0, whereas it was remarkably more labile below and above this range.

In vitro suppression of inflammatory cytokine response by methionine sulfoximine
Background The glutamine synthetase inhibitor methionine sulfoximine (MSO), shown previously to prevent death caused by an inflammatory liver response in mice, was tested on in vitro production of cytokines by mouse peritoneal macrophages triggered with ...

Glutamate is the main excitatory amino acid acting at the level of pre and postsynaptic neurons, as well as in glial cells. It is involved in the coordinated modulation of energy metabolism, glutamine synthesis, and ammonia detoxification.

Transgenic expression of plastidic glutamine synthetase increases nitrogen uptake and yield in wheat
Summary The plastidic glutamine synthetase isoform (GS2) plays a key role in nitrogen (N) assimilation. We introduced TaGS2‐2Abpro::TaGS2‐2Ab, the favourable allele of TaGS2‐2A in the winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) variety Ji5265. Transgenic expression
