UniProt functional annotation for P30870

UniProt code: P30870.

Organism: Escherichia coli (strain K12).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia.
 
Function: Involved in the regulation of glutamine synthetase GlnA, a key enzyme in the process to assimilate ammonia (PubMed:8412694). When cellular nitrogen levels are high, the C-terminal adenylyl transferase inactivates GlnA by covalent transfer of an adenylyl group from ATP to 'Tyr-398' of GlnA, thus reducing its activity (PubMed:4920894, PubMed:9312015). Conversely, when nitrogen levels are low, the N- terminal adenylyl removase (AR) activates GlnA by removing the adenylyl group by phosphorolysis, increasing its activity (PubMed:4893578, PubMed:4920873, PubMed:4934180, PubMed:9312015, PubMed:14766310). The regulatory region of GlnE binds the signal transduction protein PII (GlnB) which indicates the nitrogen status of the cell (PubMed:8412694). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14766310, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4867671, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4893578, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4920873, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4920894, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4934180, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8412694, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9312015}.

Activity regulation: The adenylation activity is stimulated by glutamine and PII (GlnB), and inhibited by 2-oxoglutarate (PubMed:4867671, PubMed:4920894, PubMed:33597, PubMed:9312015). Deadenylation activity is stimulated by PII-UMP (GlnB-UMP) and 2- oxoglutarate, and inhibited by glutamine (PubMed:4893578, PubMed:4934180, PubMed:33597, PubMed:9312015, PubMed:14766310). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14766310, ECO:0000269|PubMed:33597, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4867671, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4893578, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4920894, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4934180, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9312015}.
