Abstract:
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in mammalian plasma and involved in the metabolism and tissue homeostasis of some important substance under physiological and pathological situations.Function of glutamine should be based on its transport into or out of the functional cells via transporters located in cytomembrane.As the liver is the primary center of amino acids homeostasis in the body,it is helpful to learn structure and function of those transporters in hepatic plasma membrane to having a better understanding of the metabolism and function of glutamine.
