About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for GLUL:
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the glutamine synthetase family. It catalyzes the synthesis of glutamine
from glutamate and ammonia. Glutamine is a main source of energy and is involved in cell proliferation, inhibition of
apoptosis, and cell signaling. This gene is expressed during early fetal stages, and plays an important role in
controlling body pH by removing ammonia from circulation. Mutations in this gene are associated with congenital
glutamine deficiency. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.(provided by
RefSeq, Oct 2009)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: GLNA_HUMAN, P15104
Function: This enzyme has 2 functions: it catalyzes the production of glutamine and 4-aminobutanoate
(gamma-aminobutyric acid, GABA), the latter in a pyridoxal phosphate-independent manner (By similarity). Essential for
proliferation of fetal skin fibroblasts
