CAS 56-85-9

L-Glutamine

Description:

L-Glutamine, with the CAS number 56-85-9, is a naturally occurring amino acid that plays a crucial role in various metabolic processes. It is classified as a non-essential amino acid, meaning that the body can synthesize it, although it can also be obtained from dietary sources such as meat, fish, dairy products, and certain plant-based foods. L-Glutamine is characterized by its polar side chain, which contains an amide group, making it hydrophilic and soluble in water. This amino acid is vital for protein synthesis, serving as a building block for proteins, and is also involved in nitrogen transport within the body. Additionally, L-Glutamine is important for maintaining gut health, supporting immune function, and serving as a fuel source for rapidly dividing cells, such as those in the intestines and immune system. In clinical settings, it is often used as a supplement to aid recovery in patients undergoing stress, surgery, or intensive exercise. Overall, L-Glutamine is integral to various physiological functions and overall health.

Applications 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.

L-Glutamine is an amino acid that is important for protein synthesis and the maintenance of muscle mass. It is also a precursor for other compounds, such as nucleotides and glutathione, which are required for maintaining cell viability. L-Glutamine may be used to treat bowel diseases, such as Crohn's disease, by improving the function of the intestines and reducing intestinal permeability. It has been shown to decrease levels of oxidative injury in cells by acting as an antioxidant. L-Glutamine may also be used to help prevent or treat infectious diseases by increasing the activity of transcription activators that protect cells from oxidative injury. L-Glutamine can be administered intravenously or orally and can be used as a biocompatible polymer carrier for drugs that are difficult to administer due to their poor water solubility.
