Glutamine is an alpha amino acid used in synthesis of protein chains. It has amide as functional group and due to amine group it is basic in nature and is encoded by codons CAA and CAG.

The name of glutamine according to IUPAC nomenclature is 2,5 diamino 5 oxo-pentanoic acid. This amino acid is most abundant amino acid in human body.
