Glutamate synthase (GltS) FMN-binding domain. GltS is a complex iron-sulfur flavoprotein that catalyzes the reductive synthesis of L-glutamate from 2-oxoglutarate and L-glutamine via intramolecular channelling of ammonia, a reaction in the plant, yeast and bacterial pathway for ammonia assimilation. It is a multifunctional enzyme that functions through three distinct active centers, carrying out L-glutamine hydrolysis, conversion of 2-oxoglutarate into L-glutamate, and electron uptake from an electron donor.
