Gs1 | Glutamine synthetase 1 (Gs1) encodes the mitochondrial enzyme that uses glutamate and ammonia as substrates to synthesize glutamine, which is a precursor of purine and pyrimidine synthesis. An adequate level of maternally supplied Gs1 product activity is necessary in the early embryonic development. High level of glutamine in mitochondria causes megamitochondrial formation in cells.

Pten | Phosphatase and tensin homolog (Pten) encodes a dual lipid and protein phosphatase that primarily counters the effects of the insulin-regulated lipid kinase, encoded by Pi3K92E. It inhibits cell growth, cell proliferation and cellular events controlling cytoskeletal and junctional rearrangements. (514 aa) | ||||
Gs2 | Glutamine synthetase 2 (Gs2) encodes an enzyme that converts glutamate to glutamine. It is expressed in the embryonic nervous system and regulates the size of glutamate neurotransmitter pools and synapse assembly. (373 aa) |
