The formation of glutamine from glutamate and ammonium ions requires 14.2 kJ mol of energy input. It is driven by the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP mediated by the enzyme glutamine synthetase. (a) Given that the change in Gibbs energy for the hydrolysis of ATP corresponds to AG-31 kl mol under the conditions prevailing in a typical cell, can the hydrolysis drive the formation of glutamine? (b) How many moles of ATP must be hydrolysed to form 1 mol of glutamine?
