comment
  • FUNCTION Light-modulated chloroplastic glutamine synthetase, encoded by a nuclear gene and expressed primarily in leaves, and which is responsible for the reassimilation of the ammonia generated by photorespiration.CATALYTIC ACTIVITY L-glutamate + NH4(+) + ATP = L-glutamine + ADP + phosphate + H(+)SUBUNIT Homooctamer.SUBCELLULAR LOCATION Plants overexpressing GLN2 show enhanced photorespiration capacity.SIMILARITY Belongs to the glutamine synthetase family.
