Phosphorylation of Glutamine Synthetase on Threonine 301 Contributes to Its Inactivation During Epilepsy

The astrocyte-specific enzyme glutamine synthetase (GS), which catalyzes the amidation of glutamate to glutamine, plays an essential role in supporting neurotransmission and in limiting NH(4)(+) toxicity. Accordingly, deficits in GS activity contribute to epilepsy and neurodegeneration. Despite its...
