Application Notes: L-gamma-Glutamyl-p-nitroanilide (GPNA) is a substrate for gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase. GPNA is used for the determination of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase hydrolytic activity via spectrophotometric monitoring of p-nitroaniline released by the action of the enzyme on GPNA.1 GPNA has also been shown to be an inhibitor of glutamine uptake - solute-linked carrier family A1 member 5 (SLC1A5)2 Cellular uptake of L-glutamine (regulated by SLC1A5) is a rate-limiting step that activates mTOR and is, thus, an interesting cancer chemotherapy target.3
