Glutamate--cysteine ligase EgtA; Catalyzes the synthesis of gamma-glutamylcysteine (gamma-GC). This compound is used as substrate for the biosynthesis of the low-molecular thiol compound ergothioneine (By similarity).

Glutamine synthetase GlnA1 (glutamine synthase) (GS-I); Involved in nitrogen metabolism via ammonium assimilation. Catalyzes the ATP-dependent biosynthesis of glutamine from glutamate and ammonia. Also able to use GTP. D-glutamate is a poor substrate, and DL-glutamate shows about 50% of the standard specific activity. Also plays a key role in controlling the ammonia levels within infected host cells and so contributes to the pathogens capacity to inhibit phagosome acidification and phagosome-lysosome fusion. Involved in cell wall biosynthesis via the production of the major component p [...]
