The antibody will recognize both, cytoplasmic and chloroplastic forms of the GS enzyme
Glutamine synthetase (GLN or GS) is one of the key enzymes involved in plant nitrogen metabolism. It catalyzes the synthesis of glutamine from glutamate and ammonia in an ATP-dependent reaction. There are two main classes of glutamine synthetases in plants :GLN1 is the cytoplasmic form and GLN2 is the chloroplast form. GLN1 is abundant in the vascular components of roots, nodules, flowers and fruits, and is involved in ammonia assimilation and glutamine biosynthesis for nitrogen transport. GLN2 is encoded by a single gene and is abundant in the chloroplasts of mesophyll. Here, GLN plays a role in the assimilation of ammonia produced by photorespiration and the reduction of nitrate in chloroplasts
