Alloisoleucine[edit]

No time right now but this page needs to include Alloisoleucine. Putting it in my to-do list. Vcpmartin (talk) 17:42, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Cycloleucine?[edit]

As a chemist I strongly disagree with including cycloleucine here. However as it has it’s own page others have decided otherwise. Vcpmartin (talk) 17:44, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure I have heard this used in this way.[edit]

The 'LEUCINES' - my suspicion is this is from a translation or someone who worked deeply on the molecule - ended up as a buzz phrase.

Does this article need to exist?

As a Biochemist - I have never used this term! BeingObjective (talk) 21:39, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No Citation[edit]

I note there is no authoritative citation - I could not find one - as stated, it is most likely a casual buzz phrase - I have never seen this term used in formal lit - or even in conv.

I wonder why this article exists tbh. BeingObjective (talk) 13:56, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
