BD, 610517, Purified Mouse Anti-Glutamine Synthetase 6/Glutamine Synthetase

Glutamine synthetase catalyzes the amination of glutamic acid to form glutamine. It is found in mammals as an octamer of identical 45 kDa subunits. Glutamine synthetase activity is a useful marker for astrocytes and an important differentiation feature in retina. It is also considered to be a key enzyme in the recycling of the neurotransmitter glutamate.
