In enzymology a glutamate synthase (NADPH) (EC 1.4.1.13) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionL-glutamine + 2-oxoglutarate + NADPH + H+ 2 L-glutamate + NADP+Thus the four substrates of this enzyme are L-glutamine 2-oxoglutarate (α-ketoglutarate) NADPH and H+ whereas the two products are L-glutamate and NADP+.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor.
