Glucocorticoid-Inducible Glutamine Synthetase in GH Cells of Chick Embryos, Gallus domesticus: Ontogeny of Glutamine Synthetase, GH, and Pit-1 Protein in the Pituitary Gland

It has been known that glutamine synthetase (GS, L-glutamate ammonia ligase) is an enzyme that catalyzes ATP-dependent condensation of glutamate and ammonia to form glutamine, and that GS and growth hormone (GH) are proteins that are induced by glucocorticoid-treatment during the development of anim...
