Leucylleucine (Leu-Leu) may be used to study the functionality of dileucine motifs such as the motif responsible for internalization and targeting of vesicular acetylcholine transporter and clathrin adaptors AP-1 and AP-2. Leucylleucine may be used to study growth supplement requirements in vitro.

Different strains of Lactococcus lactis ssp. cremoris hydrolyze peptides at different rates while the cell-free extracts of these strains all show the same or much higher rates of hydrolysis. These observations indicate that the uptake of peptides is the rate-limiting

1. We assessed the efficacy of nitrogen absorption from luminal L-leucine (1.2 and 12 mmol/l) and from isonitrogenous L-leucyl-L-leucine (0.6 and 6.0 mmol/l) in a preparation of vascularly and luminally perfused rat small intestine by measuring luminal leucyl-leucine disappearance and
Efficient cholinergic transmission requires accurate targeting of vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) to synaptic vesicles (SVs). However, the signals that regulate this vesicular targeting are not well characterized. Although previous studies suggest that the C-terminus of the transporter is required for

The clathrin adaptors AP-1 and AP-2 bind cargo proteins via two types of motifs: tyrosine-based Yxx phi and dileucine-based [DE]XXXL[LI]. Although it is well established that Yxx phi motifs bind to the mu subunits of AP-1 or AP-2, dileucine motifs
Oenococcus oeni has numerous amino acid requirements for growth and dipeptides could be important for its nutrition. In this paper the individual or combined effect of dipeptides on growth of O. oeni X2L in synthetic media deficient in one or
