OUTLINE

Glutamine synthetase of Salmonella


Tertiary structure of protein is characterized by the “global” folding of a polypeptide chain [1] and has two domains in refined atomic model of glutamine synthetase from Salmonella typhimurium. Hydrophobic interaction is a major driving force determining the most tertiary structure of the proteins. [2] Hydrogen bonding is crucial in stabilizing the tertiary structure as well. [3] Also, disulfide bonds between cysteine residues stabilize the tertiary structure. [4] However, for glutamine synthetase for Salmonella, the most important interaction will be the helix-helix interactions.

Glutamine synthetase from Salmonella has twenty three helix-helix interactions and is four different types of interactions. [5] on the protein residues and regions of the protein residues are represented by deep blue color.
