Glutamine synthetase from Salmonella typhimurium is the 12-subunits enzyme and has 23 helix-helix interactions involving helices of chain A with four different types of interactions.

Also between layers, there is a hydrogen-bonded beta sheet interaction, as there is between subunits within a ring, but hydrophobic interactions account for most of the intersubunit stability. The central loop, which extends into the central aqueous channel, is subject to attack by at least five enzymes and is discussed as an enzyme "passive site."}[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2572586?dopt=Abstract] | |||
The most effective interaction in glutamine synthetase from Salmonella typhimurium is the helix-helix interactions. The folding of the proteins can be affected by the 12-subunits in the residues, as well as the helix-helix interactions. In the helix-helix interactions, there are two domains; one has 12 helices, the other has 4 helices. | |||
<scene name='Sandbox108/Hydrophobic/1'>Hydrophobic(purple)</scene> and <scene name='Sandbox108/Polar/1'>polar(blue)</scene> regions of the protein residues are on the helices of chain A. Also, uncharged polar groups are usually classified as hydrophilic that is found on the outside of proteins, but for glutamine in Salmonella typhimurium its side chain is uncharged and formed by replacing the hydroxyl of glutamic acid with an amine functional group.
