Non‐enzymatic ammonia formation from glutamine under growth conditions for Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum

Glutamine was found to be converted to NH3 and pyroglutamic acid (5‐oxo‐2‐pyrrolidine carboxylic acid; 5‐oxoproline) under conditions of growth for Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum at rates sufficient to satisfy the organism's nitrogen requirements.
