The role of ammonia, L-glutamate, and cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate in the regulation of ammonia assimilation in Rhizobium japonicum.
Upchurch RG, Elkan GH.
Biochim Biophys Acta. 1978 Jan 18;538(2):244-8.
The effects of three factors (ammonia, L-glutamate, and cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate) on the ammonia assimilatory processes in aerobically grown Rhizobium japonicum colony derivatives were examined. Ammonia repressed glutamine synthetase activity and increased the average state of adenylylation of this enzyme. The addition of L-glutamate drastically decreased growth and strongly repressed glutamate synthase levels. Glutamine synthetase repression and adenylylation state were also increased by L-glutamate. The presence of cyclic AMP led to the repression of all three NH+4 assimilatory enzymes.
