Abstract

Glutamine synthetase I was purified fromRhizobium sp. UMKL 20 following polyethylene glycol precipitation. The enzyme had a subunit molecular weight of 58 kd. Apparent Km values for ammonia and glutamate were 5.6 and 15.2 mM, respectively. Glutamine synthetase I activity was inhibited by several end products of glutamine metabolism. The purified enzyme was highly adenylylated (E n − =8.5).
