The chemical reactions and pathways involving amino acids, organic acids containing one or more amino substituents. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of histidine into other compounds, including glutamate and formate. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of arginine into other compounds, including glutamate. The chemical reactions and pathways involving glutamate, the anion of 2-aminopentanedioic acid. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of histidine into other compounds, including glutamate and formamide. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of glutamate, the anion of 2-aminopentanedioic acid. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of glutamate, the anion of 2-aminopentanedioic acid. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of proline into other compounds, including glutamate. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of protoporphyrinogen IX from other compounds, including glutamate. The chemical reactions and pathways involving D-glutamate, the D-enantiomer of the amino acid glutamate, i.e. (2R)-2-aminopentanedioic acid. The pathway by which ammonia is processed and incorporated into a cell. In an energy-rich (glucose-containing), nitrogen-poor environment glutamine synthetase and glutamate synthase form an ammonia assimilatory cycle, in which ammonia is incorporated into L-glutamate to form L-glutamine, which then combines with alpha-ketoglutarate to regenerate L-glutamate. This ATP-dependent cycle is essential for nitrogen-limited growth and for steady-state growth with some sources of nitrogen. The chemical reactions and pathways involving amino acids of the glutamine family, comprising arginine, glutamate, glutamine and proline.
