Glutamine Synthetase: Secondary structures

Glutamine synthetase is composed of 12 . Each subunit is composed of 15 and 12 , as well as a .

Each subunit has an exposed NH2 terminus and buried COOH terminus as part of a helical thong. [1]


The beta sheets are arranged into two separate partial beta barrels, one of which encompasses the ligand complex.

The active site within the secondary structure can be called a "bifunnel," providing access to ATP and glutamate at opposing ends.[2]

The only ligand present is a pair of Mn ions (Manganese) that the active site of each subunit.
