L-Glutamine

L-Glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid. It is the most abundant free amino acid in mammalian plasma and intracellular fluids, playing a central role in nitrogen metabolism and biosynthetic pathways. Structurally, L-Glutamine is the γ-amide of glutamic acid, featuring an amide group in its side chain that enables it to function as a major nitrogen donor in a variety of metabolic reactions.

L-Glutamine is an essential amino acid that is a crucial component of culture media that serves as a major energy source for cells in culture. L-Glutamine is very stable as a dry powder and as a frozen solution. In liquid media or stock solutions, however, L-glutamine degrades relatively rapidly. Optimal cell performance usually requires supplementation of the media with L-glutamine prior to use.
