Protein existenceInferred from homology

General annotation (Comments)

Catalytic activity

2 ATP + L-glutamine + HCO3- + H2O = 2 ADP + phosphate + L-glutamate + carbamoyl phosphate.

Pathway

Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-arginine biosynthesis; carbamoyl phosphate from bicarbonate: step 1/1.

Subunit structure

Composed of two chains; the small (or glutamine) chain promotes the hydrolysis of glutamine to ammonia, which is used by the large (or ammonia) chain to synthesize carbamoyl phosphate By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the CarA family.

Contains 1 glutamine amidotransferase type-1 domain.
