2. Leucine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leucine

   Leucine. Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). Leucine (symbol Leu or L) [3] is an essential amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins. Leucine is an α-amino acid, meaning it contains an α- amino group (which is in the protonated −NH 3+ form under ...

3. Branched-chain amino acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branched-chain_amino_acid

   A branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) is an amino acid having an aliphatic side-chain with a branch (a central carbon atom bound to three or more carbon atoms). Among the proteinogenic amino acids, there are three BCAAs: leucine, isoleucine, and valine. [1] Non-proteinogenic BCAAs include 2-aminoisobutyric acid and alloisoleucine.

4. β-Hydroxy β-methylbutyric acid - Wikipedia

   In the breast milk of healthy lactating women, HMB and L-leucine have been measured in ranges of 42–164 μg/L and 2.1–88.5 mg/L. [65] In comparison, HMB has been detected and measured in the milk of healthy cows at a concentration of <20–29 μg/L. [66] This concentration is far too low to be an adequate dietary source of HMB for obtaining ...

5. Leucines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leucines

   The leucines are primarily the four isomeric amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, tert -leucine (terleucine, pseudoleucine) and norleucine. [1] Being compared with the four butanols, they could be classified as butyl-substituted glycines; they represent all four possible variations. Leucine and isoleucine belong to the proteinogenic amino acids ...

6. Maple syrup urine disease - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maple_syrup_urine_disease

   Medical genetics, Dietetics. Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is a rare, inherited metabolic disorder that affects the body’s ability to metabolize amino acids due to a deficiency in the activity of the branched-chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase (BCKAD) complex. [3] It particularly affects the metabolism of amino acids- leucine, isoleucine ...

7. Leucyl aminopeptidase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leucyl_aminopeptidase

   Leucyl aminopeptidases (EC 3.4.11.1, leucine aminopeptidase, LAPs, leucyl peptidase, peptidase S, cytosol aminopeptidase, cathepsin III, L-leucine aminopeptidase, leucinaminopeptidase, leucinamide aminopeptidase, FTBL proteins, proteinates FTBL, aminopeptidase II, aminopeptidase III, aminopeptidase I) are enzymes that preferentially catalyze the hydrolysis of leucine residues at the N-terminus ...
