DL-Isoleucine（Cat No.:A001241）is a synthetic mixture of the D- and L-enantiomers of isoleucine, a branched-chain essential amino acid. Isoleucine plays a crucial role in protein synthesis, muscle repair, and energy production. The L-enantiomer is the biologically active form, involved in metabolic processes like glucose regulation and the formation of hemoglobin. The D-form, while not naturally incorporated into proteins, is used in research for studying stereochemistry and amino acid metabolism. DL-Isoleucine is used in nutritional supplements, veterinary medicine, and biochemical studies focused on amino acid metabolism, energy production, and muscle function.
