Description

Participates in acid-base regulation in vivo. L-Glutamine, MP Biomedicals is a crucial component of culture media and serves as a major energy source for cells in culture. It is the uncharged, amidated analog of L-glutamic acid, an amino acid important fo

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.

• L-glutamine is added for optimal cell performance in a culture
• The utilization of glutamine under carbon starvation conditions by cultured Saccharomyces cerevisiae and its relation to the cytoplasmic compartmentation of the transcriptional activator Gln3 has been studied
• The use of glutamine in cultured rat islets to probe a-ketoisocaproate oxidation has been investigated
