L-Leucine has been used as an agonist of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) to determine whether AMPKmTOR pathway is involved in berberine-mediated autophagy in J774A.1 cells. It has also been used for the selection of transformed cells.

Leucine (abbreviated as Leu or L encoded by the six codons UUA UUG CUU CUC CUA and CUG) is an -amino acid used in the biosynthesis of proteins. It contains an -amino group (which is in the protonated NH 3 form under biological conditions) an -carboxylic acid group (which is in the deprotonated COO form under biological conditions) and an isobutyl side chain classifying it as a nonpolar (at physiological pH) amino acid. It is essential in humansmeaning the body cannot synthesize it and thus must obtain from the diet.
