IPR002932

Description

IPR002932 is a Glutamate synthase domain.

<p>Ferredoxin-dependent glutamate synthase (GltS) has been implicated in a number of functions including photorespiration in Arabidopsis where it may also play a role in primary nitrogen assimilation in roots [[cite:PUB00007209]]. GltS is a complex iron-sulfur flavoprotein that catalyzes the reductive synthesis of L-glutamate from 2-oxoglutarate and L-glutamine via intramolecular channelling of ammonia, a reaction in the plant, yeast and bacterial pathway for ammonia assimilation. It is a multifunctional enzyme that functions through three distinct active centres, carrying out L-glutamine hydrolysis, conversion of 2-oxoglutarate into L-glutamate, and electron uptake from an electron donor [[cite:PUB00080763], [cite:PUB00043791], [cite:PUB00080764]].</p> <p>This domain is expressed as a separate subunit in the glutamate synthase alpha subunit from archaebacteria, or part of a large multidomain enzyme in other organisms. It contains a putative FMN binding site and Fe-S cluster [[cite:PUB00015747], [cite:PUB00005657]].</p>

GO term Namespace Name Definition Relationships
Biological process Glutamate biosynthetic process The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of glutamate, the anion of 2-aminopentanedioic acid.
Molecular function Glutamate synthase activity Catalysis of the formation of L-glutamine and 2-oxoglutarate from L-glutamate, using NADH, NADPH or ferredoxin as hydrogen acceptors.
Molecular function Oxidoreductase activity, acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors Catalysis of an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction in which a CH-NH2 group acts as a hydrogen or electron donor and reduces a hydrogen or electron acceptor.
Biological process Oxidation-reduction process A metabolic process that results in the removal or addition of one or more electrons to or from a substance, with or without the concomitant removal or addition of a proton or protons.
