Comparative genome analysis of central nitrogen metabolism and its control by GlnR in the class Bacilli

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The assimilation of nitrogen in bacteria is achieved through only a few metabolic conversions between alpha-ketoglutarate, glutamate and glutamine. The enzymes that catalyze these conversions are glutamine synthetase, glutaminase, gl...
