Description
Glycyl-glutamine (gly-gln) is a dipeptide that is used as a substitute for glutamine in cell culture. Higher cell yields are obtained when this dipeptide is used instead of glutamine, where gly-gln affects substrate utilization and metabolism. Cell growth is higher as the concentrations of this dipeptide remain high, due to lower peptidase affinity.Heat-stable substitute for glutamine in mammalian cell culture media
