The synthesis of glutamine from glutamic acid is given by Glu - + NH 4 +

Question:

The synthesis of glutamine from glutamic acid is given by Glu- + NH4→ Gln + H2O. The standard Gibbs energy of reaction* at pH = 7 and T = 310 K is ΔrG°' = 14.8 kJ mol-1. Will this reaction be spontaneous if coupled with the hydrolysis of ATP?

ATP + HO ADP + P AGO! = -31.5 kJ mol
