Term Name:	glutamate synthase (ferredoxin) activity
Synonyms:	ferredoxin-dependent glutamate synthase activity, ferredoxin-glutamate synthase activity, glutamate synthase (ferredoxin-dependent), L-glutamate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (transaminating)
Definition:	Catalysis of the reaction: 2 L-glutamate + 2 oxidized ferredoxin = L-glutamine + 2-oxoglutarate + 2 reduced ferredoxin + 2 H+. This is a two-step reaction: (a) L-glutamate + NH3 = L-glutamine + H2O, (b) L-glutamate + 2 oxidized ferredoxin + H2O = NH3 + 2-oxoglutarate + 2 reduced ferredoxin + 2 H+.
