Product DescriptionL-Glutamine, a precursor of Glutamate, is one of the most readily available sources of energy for many rapidly dividing cell types for use in vitro. This amino acid is formed from glutamic acid by the action of glutamine synthetase. It is a clear, colorless solution at 37°C and is a key component and essential amino acid that is found in many cell-culture media formulations and in virtually all mammalian cells in culture.A lack of L-glutamine can lead to poor cell growth and even death. When glucose levels are low and energy requirements are high, especially for rapidly proliferating cell types or cells cultured under hypoxic conditions, glutamine can be used as a primary source of energy for cells.
