SpeciesSaccharomyces cerevisiae
StrainBaker's yeast
DescriptionGlutamine (abbreviated as Gln or Q) is an alpha-amino acid. The L-isomer is one of the 22 proteinogenic amino acids, i.e., the building blocks of proteins. It is classified as a polar amino acid, because of the hydrophilic nature of its alkyl-amide or alkyl-carboxamide side chain. Glutamine can be considered the amide of glutamic acid. Glutamine plays a role in a variety of biochemical functions including protein synthesis, cellular energy, as a source, next to glucose, 2) Nitrogen donation for many anabolic processes and 3) Carbon donation, as a source, refilling the citric acid cycle. Glutamine is synthesized by the enzyme glutamine synthetase from glutamate and ammonia. During fermentation of wine, glutamate, glutamine and most of the amino acids are practically depleted from the grape juice/ grape must (the juice component including skins, seeds and stems) by the time the first 30 g of sugar have been fermented. Alanine and arginine are the principle amino acids found in grape must. Yeast make use of these two amino acids and ammonium (slightly) after the depletion of the other amino acids. Yeast then assimilate arginine only after the disappearance of ammonium from the grape must/juice. Yeasts do not utilize proline during fermentation although it is one of the principle amino acids found in must. During fermentation, yeasts assimilate between 1 and 2 g/L of amino acids. Towards the end of fermentation, yeasts excrete significant but variable amounts of different amino acids. Finally at the end of alcoholic fermentation, a few hundred mg/L of amino acids remain with proline generally represents half.
