Description |
L-Isoleucine is an essential α-amino acid crucial for protein biosynthesis. It belongs to the category of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and is characterized by its non-polar, uncharged, and aliphatic nature. Structurally, it contains an α-amino group, an α-carboxylic acid group, and a branched hydrocarbon side chain. |
Uses | Like all amino acids, isoleucine plays a fundamental role in the synthesis of proteins. It serves as a building block for the formation of various proteins necessary for cellular structure and function. It contributes to immune system function, aiding in the body's defense against pathogens and foreign invaders. It supports the proper functioning of immune organs, cells, and reactive substances. |
