Glutamate Synthase Pathway

The Glutamate Synthase Pathway is a metabolic pathway in nitrogen assimilation that incorporates ammonia into glutamate via the concerted action of glutamine synthetase and glutamate synthase, distinguishing it from alternative routes by enabling efficient reamination of glutamine to sustain amino acid homeostasis in plants, bacteria, and fungi.
