BIOCHEM: Ammonia is incorporated into amino acids via which of
the following?
A) glutamate
B) glutamine
C) both A and B
D) none of the above
Answer : option (c)
Ammonia is incorporated into amino acids as well as in the biomolecules via the use of both glutamate and glutamine .
In the chloroplast, glutamine synthetase (enzyme) incorporates ammonia as the Amide (-CONH2 ) group of glutamine by taking glutamate as the substrate.
Reaction is :
Glutamate + ATP +NH3 ---------> Glutamine + ADP + Phosphate
