L-isoleucine is an essential branched-chain aliphatic amino acid found in many proteins. L-Isoleucine is an isomer of LEUCINE. Important in hemoglobin synthesis and regulation of blood sugar and energy levels. L-Isoleucine is one of nine essential amino acids (present in dietary proteins), L-Isoleucine has diverse physiological functions, such as assisting wound healing, detoxification of nitrogenous wastes, stimulating immune function, and promoting secretion of several hormones. Necessary for hemoglobin formation and regulating blood sugar and energy levels, L-Isoleucine is concentrated in muscle tissues in humans.
