General description

L-Leucine Dehydrogenase is a member of the amino acid dehydrogenase family.

Application

L-Leucine Dehydrogenase from Bacillus cereus has been used to determine the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) spectrophotometrically in serum samples.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Leucine Dehydrogenase is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrogen (NADH)-dependent oxidoreductase. It is involved in catalyzing the reductive amination of aliphatic 2-oxo-acids to their respective L-amino acids.

Other Notes

One unit will convert 1.0 μmole of L‑leucine to α-ketoisocaproate per min at pH 10.5 at 37 °C.

Unnatural amino acids (UAAs) play a key role in modern medicinal chemistry such as small molecules and peptide-based drugs with fast-growing markets. Low efficiency for natural enzymes including leucine dehydrogenase (LeuDH, EC1.4.1.9) are one major challenge for UAA production. Here

X-ray crystallographic studies revealed that various amino acid dehydrogenases fold into two domains in each subunit, a substrate-binding domain and an NAD(P)(+)-binding domain (Baker, P. J., Turnbull, A. P., Sedelnikova, S. E., Stillman, T. J., and Rice, D. W. (1995)

A liquid chromatographic system with a co-immobilized leucine dehydrogenase-NADH oxidase reactor is described for the determination of branched-chain amino acids such as I-leucine, I-isoleucine and I-valine. The enzymes were simultaneously immobilized on tresylate-containing poly(vinyl alcohol) beads. The separation was achieved

We propose that hyperinsulinemia stimulates protein synthesis when postabsorptive plasma amino acid (AA) concentrations are maintained. During a euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp, many AA, notably the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), decline markedly. Therefore, we tested whether individual plasma AA could be
