Abstract excerpt
Symbiotic nitrogen fixation is accompanied by a shift of Rhizobium nitrogen metabolism from ammonium assimilation to ammonium export, which probably involves genetic or metabolic regulation of glutamine synthetase activity. In free-living Rhizobium meliloti glutamine synthetase I (GSI) is regulated post-translationally by reversible adenylylation in response to ammonium addition. Moreover, full expression of the...
