Target Information
Glutamine synthetase (GS) is a crucial enzyme in mice, primarily involved in glutamine synthesis and playing a significant role in various physiological and pathological processes. GS catalyzes the conversion of glutamate and ammonia into glutamine, a process vital for maintaining intracellular nitrogen balance, amino acid metabolism, and ammonia detoxification. As the only enzyme capable of synthesizing glutamine de novo, GS activity is evident in numerous tissues, including muscle, liver, kidney, and brain. In muscle tissue, GS aids in coping with starvation and extrahepatic ammonia detoxification by facilitating glutamine production. For example, during starvation, GS activity significantly increases to support glutamine synthesis, thereby maintaining overall metabolic balance. In mice, GS is essential for ammonia detoxification, mitigating ammonia's toxic effects on the nervous system by converting glutamate and ammonia into glutamine.
