GMP Synthetase: Allostery, Structure, and Function
Glutamine amidotransferases (GATs) catalyze the hydrolysis of glutamine and transfer the generated ammonia to diverse metabolites. The two catalytic activities, glutaminolysis and the subsequent amination of the acceptor substrate, happen in two distinct catalytic pockets connected by a channel that...
