Glutamine metabolic reprogramming in hepatocellular carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a lethal disease with limited management strategies and poor prognosis. Metabolism alternations have been frequently unveiled in HCC, including glutamine metabolic reprogramming.

Dexamethasone regulates glutamine synthetase expression in rat skeletal muscles [PDF]
The regulation of glutamine synthetase expression by dexamethasone was studied in rat skeletal muscles. Daily administration of dexamethasone caused striking enhancement of glutamine synthetase activity in plantaris, soleus, and diaphragm muscles ...

Outgrowth of Rice Tillers Requires Availability of Glutamine in the Basal Portions of Shoots
Background Our previous studies concluded that metabolic disorder in the basal portions of rice shoots caused by a lack of cytosolic glutamine synthetase1;2 (GS1;2) resulted in a severe reduction in the outgrowth of tillers.

Glutamine Synthetase and Glutamine Synthetase‐Like Protein from Human Brain [PDF]
Abstract: Glutamine synthetase (GS; EC 6.3.1.2), a key enzyme ofglutamate metabolism, and another enzyme possessing highhydroxylamine‐L‐glutamine transferase activity comparable to that of GS andtermed GS‐like protein (GSLP) were purified from human brain concurrently.

A glutamine riboswitch is a key element for the regulation of glutamine synthetase in cyanobacteria
As the key enzyme of bacterial nitrogen assimilation, glutamine synthetase (GS) is tightly regulated. In cyanobacteria, GS activity is controlled by the interaction with inactivating protein factors IF7 and IF17 encoded by the genes gifA and gifB ...

The Rhizobium GstI Protein Reduces the NH4+ Assimilation Capacity of Rhizobium leguminosarum
We show that the protein encoded by the glutamine synthetase translational inhibitor (gstI) gene reduces the NH4+ assimilation capacity of Rhizobium leguminosarum.

Glutamine metabolism in the proliferation of GS-expression pituitary tumor cells
Objective: Many cancer cells cannot survive without exogenous glutamine (Gln); however, cancer cells expressing glutamine synthetase (GS) do not have this restriction.

The intracellular location of nitrogen metabolism enzymes in Pisum arvense L. roots
The time course changes of nitrate assimilation enzymes and their distribution has been studied in Pisum arvense roots. The results indicate that nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.2) and glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2) are present in the soluble fraction ...

Circumstantial evidence for a role of glutamine-synthetase in suicide [PDF]
Suicide occurs during depression, schizophrenia and epilepsy. A common denominator of these disorders is the presence of a brain inflammation. Inflammatory cytokines affect function and expression of the glial enzyme glutamine synthetase and post mortem ...
