ENZYME entry: EC 1.4.7.1

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/1.4.7.1
Accepted Name
glutamate synthase (ferredoxin)
Alternative Name(s)
ferredoxin-dependent glutamate synthase
Reaction catalysed
2 oxidized [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] + 2 L-glutamate = L-glutamine + 2 reduced [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] + 2-oxoglutarate + 2 H(+)
Comment(s)
  • The protein is composed of two domains, one hydrolyzing L-glutamine to NH3 and L-glutamate (cf. EC 3.5.1.2), the other combining the produced NH3 with 2-oxoglutarate to produce a second molecule of L-glutamate.
  • The NH3 is channeled through a 24 A channel in the active protein.
  • No hydrolysis of glutamine takes place without ferredoxin and 2-oxoglutarate being bound to the protein.
