Which of the following products is formed from the glutamate synthase-catalyzed reaction?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glutamate synthase catalyzes the formation of glutamate from ammonia and α-ketoglutarate. Therefore, the product formed from this reaction is glutamate (Choice A). NADPH is not a product of this reaction but rather a cofactor that may be required for the reaction to occur. N-acetylglutamate is a molecule that may regulate the activity of enzymes involved in amino acid synthesis but is not directly formed from the glutamate synthase-catalyzed reaction.
