Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + L-glutamate + NH3 = ADP + phosphate + L-glutamine. Catalysis of the ligation of an acid to ammonia (NH3) or an amide via a carbon-nitrogen bond with concomitant breakage of a diphosphate linkage, usually in a nucleoside triphosphate. Catalysis of the ligation of ammonia (NH3) to another substance via a carbon-nitrogen bond with concomitant breakage of a diphosphate linkage, usually in a nucleoside triphosphate.
