Leucine Dehydrogenase

Names

[ Name ]:
Leucine Dehydrogenase

[Synonym ]:

Leucine Dehydrogenase

Biological Activity

[Description]:

Leucine dehydrogenase can be purified from Bacillus spheroides. Leucine dehydrogenase catalyzed the oxidative deamination of L-leucine, L-valine, L-isoleucine, L-norvaline, L-alpha-aminobutyrate, and L-norleucine, and the reductive amination of their keto analogues[1].
