physiological function
key enzyme in the early stages of ammonia assimilation in bacteria, algae and plants, catalyzing the reductive transamidation of the amido nitrogen from glutamine to 2-oxoglutarate to form two molecules of glutamate; key enzyme in the early stages of ammonia assimilation in bacteria, algae and plants, catalyzing the reductive transamidation of the amido nitrogen from glutamine to 2-oxoglutarate to form two molecules of glutamate
physiological function
the small subunit-like protein of glutamate synthase might play an important role in redox maintenance, L-cysteine/L-cystine homeostasis, iron reduction, and the activation of metronidazole; the small subunit-like protein of glutamate synthase might play an important role in redox maintenance, L-cysteine/L-cystine homeostasis, iron reduction, and the activation of metronidazole
