Eucalyptus ESTs corresponding to the enzyme glutamine synthetase and the protein D1, sites of action of herbicides that cause oxidative stress

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2005
This work was aimed at locating Eucalyptus ESTs corresponding to the GS enzyme (Glutamine Synthetase, EC = 6.3.1.2) and to the D1 protein, which are directly related to resistance to herbicides that promote oxidative stress.

Minireview on Glutamine Synthetase Deficiency, an Ultra-Rare Inborn Error of Amino Acid Biosynthesis

Biology, 2016
Glutamine synthetase (GS) is a cytosolic enzyme that produces glutamine, the most abundant free amino acid in the human body. Glutamine is a major substrate for various metabolic pathways, and is thus an important factor for the functioning of many ...

Macrophage Stimulated by Low Ambient Temperature Hasten Tumor Growth via Glutamine Production

Biomedicines, 2020
Ambient temperature can regulate the immune response and affect tumor growth. Although thermoneutral caging reduces tumor growth via immune activation, little attention has been paid to the tumorigenic effect of low temperature.

Novel Glutamate–Putrescine Ligase Activity in Haloferax mediterranei: A New Function for glnA-2 Gene

Biomolecules, 2021
The genome of the halophilic archaea Haloferax mediterranei contains three ORFs that show homology with glutamine synthetase (GS) (glnA-1, glnA-2, and glnA-3).

Dexamethasone regulates glutamine synthetase expression in rat skeletal muscles

, 1988
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 ...

Stomatal NH3 compensation point and its metabolic regulation in senescence phenotypes of Nicotiana tabacum

Biologia Plantarum, 2012
We compared stomatal ammonia compensation point (χs) and its metabolic regulation in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) leaves of a quick-leaf-senescence phenotype ZY90 and a slow-leaf-senescence phenotype NC89. Compared with NC89, ZY90 had significantly higher

Dexamethasone regulates glutamine synthetase expression in rat skeletal muscles [PDF]

, 1986
The regulation of glutamine synthetase by glucocorticoids in rat skeletal muscles was studied. Administration of dexamethasone strikingly enhanced glutamine synthetase activity in plantaris and soleus muscles.
