1 Renal glutamine synthetase catalyzes the reaction of NH4+ with glutamate, forming glutamine and decreasing the ammonia available for net acid excretion. Ammonia glutamate-ammonia ligase (glutamine synthetase) Mus musculus
2 The purpose of the present study was to determine glutamine synthetase"s specific cellular expression in the mouse kidney and its regulation by hypokalemia, a common cause of altered renal ammonia metabolism. Ammonia glutamate-ammonia ligase (glutamine synthetase) Mus musculus
3 Glutamine synthetase is likely to mediate an important role in renal ammonia metabolism. Ammonia glutamate-ammonia ligase (glutamine synthetase) Mus musculus
