D-Leucine

Description:

D-Leucine is an essential branched-chain amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and metabolic processes. It is one of the two enantiomers of leucine, with the "D" designation indicating its specific stereochemistry. D-Leucine is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and exhibits a slightly bitter taste. It is non-toxic and is commonly found in various protein-rich foods, contributing to muscle repair and growth. In biochemical terms, D-Leucine participates in the regulation of insulin and glucose metabolism, making it significant for energy production and muscle recovery. Its molecular formula is C6H13NO2, and it has a molecular weight that classifies it among the standard amino acids. D-Leucine is often used in dietary supplements, particularly in formulations aimed at athletes and bodybuilders, due to its potential benefits in enhancing exercise performance and recovery. Additionally, it is utilized in research and pharmaceutical applications, highlighting its importance in both nutrition and biochemistry.

D-Leucine

CAS: 328-38-1

D-Leucine is an amide and a member of the group of fatty acids. It has been shown to have a high uptake in the body and is mainly used as a dietary supplement. D-Leucine is metabolized to acetyl-CoA in the mitochondria, where it is converted into acetoacetate by β-ketothiolase. Acetoacetate then undergoes a series of reactions to form acetone, which can be excreted through respiration or converted back into acetyl-CoA for use in energy production by the citric acid cycle. D-Leucine has been shown to be more effective at increasing muscle protein synthesis than other amino acids such as L-leucine or L-isoleucine. Some of the benefits of this supplement may be due to its ability to increase intracellular pH levels, which allows for better hydrogen bonding between amino acids during protein synthesis.
