Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
2 ATP + L-glutamine + hydrogencarbonate + H2O = 2 ADP + phosphate + L-glutamate + carbamoyl phosphate reaction mechanism with four separate reactions and three discrete, reactive, and unstable intermediates involved, overview. The small subunit contains the active site for the hydrolysis of glutamine, which is hydrolyzed to glutamate and ammonia via a thioester intermediate. The ammonia derived from this reaction travels 45 A to the active site for the synthesis of the carboxy phosphate intermediate, located in the N-terminal half of the large subunit. The carbamate intermediate, formed by the reaction of ammonia with carboxy phosphate, is subsequently channeled 45 A to the active site, located at the C-terminus of the large subunit, for the synthesis of carbamoyl phosphate, which is phosphorylated by the second molecule of MgATP to form the ultimate product carbamoyl phosphate. Molecular dynamics simulations, kinetic and dynamic of the mechanism for ammonia migration at the atomic level, free-energy profile for the remainder of the ammonia tunnel within CPS using the umbrella sampling technique, overview Escherichia coli
