Biochem/physiol Actions

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

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
