Protein Type
| Enzyme |
Biological Properties |
General Function
| Involved in glutamate-ammonia ligase activity |
Specific Function
| This enzyme has 2 functions: it catalyzes the production of glutamine and 4-aminobutanoate (gamma-aminobutyric acid, GABA), the latter in a pyridoxal phosphate-independent manner (By similarity). Essential for proliferation of fetal skin fibroblasts.
