Abstract excerpt
The glnA gene in the domains Bacteria and Archaea encodes glutamine synthetase, a universally distributed enzyme that functions in ammonia assimilation and glutamine synthesis. We investigated the regulation and function of glnA in the methanogenic archaeon Methanococcus maripaludis. The deduced...
