Description
- L-glutamine facilitates the storage and transfer of nitrogen to cells in culture.
- Glutamine is one of the most readily available amino acids used as an energy source when glucose levels are low and energy demands are high, especially for rapidly proliferating cell types or cells cultured under hypoxic conditions where glucose metabolism is less efficient.
- In order to combat the rapid breakdown of free L-glutamine and increase glutamine stability within cell culture media, L-alanyl-L-glutamine dipeptides are often substituted.
- L-alanyl-L-glutamine is a dipeptide that is stable in cell culture medium over longer periods of time, even at 37°C.
- The strong bonds within L-alanyl-L-glutamine stabilize the compound from degradation while the L-glutamine itself remains readily accessible to cells.
- Supplementing stem cell media with L-alanyl-L-glutamine can extend the shelf-life of the media at 4°C and greatly reduce problems associated with the breakdown of glutamine into ammonia waste.
