Reaction pathway

Reaction steps from glutamine to α-ketoglutarate part 1. Hydrolysis of the amine to give glutamate and ammonium. Should this read hydrolysis of amide to give.....? Seems correct from chemical point of view, but I'm not a biochemist..... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 40.0.96.1 (talk) 13:28, 9 January 2008 (UTC) The nitrogen in position 5 is an amide group, so your comment is correct — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.249.1.194 (talk) 15:08, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
