Term Information

Accession
GO:0016041
Name
glutamate synthase (ferredoxin) activity
Ontology
molecular_function
Synonyms
L-glutamate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (transaminating), ferredoxin-dependent glutamate synthase activity, ferredoxin-glutamate synthase activity, glutamate synthase (ferredoxin-dependent)
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
Catalysis of the reaction: 2 L-glutamate + 2 oxidized ferredoxin = L-glutamine + 2-oxoglutarate + 2 reduced ferredoxin + 2 H+. This is a two-step reaction: (a) L-glutamate + NH3 = L-glutamine + H2O, (b) L-glutamate + 2 oxidized ferredoxin + H2O = NH3 + 2-oxoglutarate + 2 reduced ferredoxin + 2 H+. Source: EC:1.4.7.1
Comment
Note that this term has a MetaCyc pathway reference as the pathway only has a single step.
