Plant and Microbe Amino Acid Synthesis
Cards in this deck (6)
- 1What is the start of plant and microbe amino acid synthesis?Glutamate
- 2What is formed from glutamate?Glutamine
NH4+ added, ATP used - 3What is the next stage?Glutamine and alphaketoglutarate combine to form 2 glutamate
- 4How does this combination occur?NADH added
Glutamate synthase - 5How does this compare with animal and fungi amino acid synthesis?ATP requirement worthwhile when NH3 scarce
Km glutamine synthetase much lower than glutamate dehydrogenase - 6—
