Glutamine is an amino acid that is involved in the synthesis of proteins. It is the most abundant amino acid in the body. It is involved in metabolism and immunity. It has two forms L-glutamine and D-glutamine. L-glutamine is found in foods and supplements. It is helpful in protein synthesis and other metabolic actions, while D-glutamine is relatively unimportant in living organisms.

Transglutaminases are calcium-dependent enzymes that catalyze protein cross-linking or deamidation and play critical roles in various biological processes.
