GlsA and GadC form an acid resistance system sufficient to protect E. coli from acid stress in the pressence of glutamine (Lu, 2013). Early experiments suggesed that GlsA(YbaS) might contribute to acid resistance, as was later demonstrated (Brown, 2008). glsA(ybaS) is in the CueR regulon (Marbach, 2012). glsA(ybaS) may be in the GadE regulon; weak support (Marbach, 2012). Two glutaminases have been purified and biochemically characterized from E. coli B.
