leucine

As nouns the difference between leucine and phenylalanine

is that leucine is (amino acid) an essential amino acid, c₆h₁₃no₂, isomeric with isoleucine, found in most animal proteins; it is essential for growth in children while phenylalanine is phenylalanine.

As nouns the difference between taxonomy and leucine

is that taxonomy is the science or the technique used to make a classification while leucine is (amino acid) an essential amino acid, c₆h₁₃no₂, isomeric with isoleucine, found in most animal proteins; it is essential for growth in children.

As nouns the difference between leucine and leucyl

is that leucine is (amino acid) an essential amino acid, c₆h₁₃no₂, isomeric with isoleucine, found in most animal proteins; it is essential for growth in children while leucyl is (organic chemistry) the univalent radical derived from leucine.

As nouns the difference between leucine and polyleucine

is that leucine is (amino acid) an essential amino acid, c₆h₁₃no₂, isomeric with isoleucine, found in most animal proteins; it is essential for growth in children while polyleucine is (biochemistry) any polypeptide (or segment of a protein) consisting of leucine moieties only.

As nouns the difference between leucine and hydroxyleucine

is that leucine is an essential amino acid, C₆H₁₃NO₂, isomeric with isoleucine, found in most animal proteins; it is essential for growth in children while hydroxyleucine is any of several isomeric hydroxy derivatives of leucine.

As nouns the difference between leucine and leucinol

is that leucine is (amino acid) an essential amino acid, c₆h₁₃no₂, isomeric with isoleucine, found in most animal proteins; it is essential for growth in children while leucinol is (organic compound) the alcohol formed by total reduction of the carboxylic acid group of leucine; any of its derivatives.
