Glycine (abbreviated Gly), also known as amino acetic acid, is a non-essential amino acid. Glycine is the constituent amino acid of endogenous antioxidant reduced glutathione, which is often supplemented by exogenous sources when the body is under severe stress, and is sometimes called semi-essential amino acid. Glycine is one of the simplest amino acids.
Solid glycine is white to off-white crystalline powder, odorless, non-toxic. Readily soluble in water, almost insoluble in ethanol or ether. Used in the pharmaceutical industry, biochemical tests and organic synthesis, is the most simple structure of the amino acid series, the human body is not essential to an amino acid, in the molecule has both acidic and alkaline functional groups, can be ionized in water, has a strong hydrophilicity, but belongs to non-polar amino acids, soluble in polar solvents, but difficult to dissolve in non-polar solvents, and has a high boiling point and melting point. Glycine can take on different molecular forms by adjusting the acidity and alkalinity of aqueous solution.
