How can you use “leucine” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Interestingly, a sequence ( L AN V N L M L E LL , amino acids 237 to 247), located within the N-terminal region of the coiled-coil domain, matches classic leucine-rich nuclear export signals (NES), such as those from Rex and PKI (Fig 6A) [ 33 34 ] . In order to test if this sequence is a bona fide NES, we made mutations at two conserved leucine residues (L234A and L236A) in the GFP-N200 construct (Fig 6A).
ΔLZ was constructed by deleting amino acids from amino acid 310 (Tth111II site) at the junction of the basic region and leucine zipper of C/EBPα to the carboxy terminus of the GFP-C/EBPα fusion.
Whereas only the human sequence uses arginine at this position, all other taxa use a large hydrophobic amino acid - either tyrosine or leucine; note that even an arginine side chain has a substantial hydrophobic segment bearing its terminal guanidino group.
Change of residue 42 in PcrG from phenylalanine to leucine made the PcrG sequence look more like that of LcrG.
CDK2 and CDK4 also interacted with segments of C/EBPα close to, and within, transcription activation domain 3 [ 36 ] . CDK2 also interacted with the basic region of the C/EBPα [ 25 ] . p21 also has a second interaction site, within the leucine zipper of C/EBPα [ 25 ] . in vitro, C/EBPα enhanced p21 inhibition of CDK2 activity.
