Anti- Glutamine Synthetase, Clone E-4
Glutamine synthetase (GS) forms a homo-octamer that acts as a catalyst for the amination of glutamic acid to glutamine. It is a marker for astrocytes and serves as the primary site for the conversion of glutamic acid to glutamine in the brain. Elevated levels of glutamine synthetase expression in glial cells have been shown to protect neurons from degeneration due to excess glutamate. Glutamine synthetase is also present in the testis and is involved in nitrogen homeostasis. Overexpression of glutamine synthetase has been observed in testicular cancers
