leucines are
primarily the four
isomeric amino acids:
leucine, isoleucine, tert-
leucine (terleucine, pseudoleucine) and norleucine.

which line up- is
called a ZIP domain, and
leucines from each ZIP

- In enzymology, a
leucine transaminase (EC 2.6.1.6) is an
enzyme that
catalyzes the
chemical reaction L-
leucine + 2-oxoglutarate ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons...
- β-
Leucine (beta-
leucine) is a beta
amino acid and
positional isomer of L-
leucine which is
naturally produced in
humans via the
metabolism of L-
leucine by...
- In enzymology, a
leucine N-acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.66) is an
enzyme that
catalyzes the
chemical reaction acetyl-CoA + L-
leucine ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons...
- A
leucine-rich
repeat (LRR) is a
protein structural motif that
forms an α/β
horseshoe fold. It is
composed of
repeating 20–30
amino acid
stretches that...
