Definition
Indole-3-acetyl-leucine is also known as iaa-leu. Indole-3-acetyl-leucine is practically insoluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Indole-3-acetyl-leucine can be found in a number of food items such as prairie turnip, pecan nut, common sage, and saffron, which makes indole-3-acetyl-leucine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as leucine and derivatives. Leucine and derivatives are compounds containing leucine or a derivative thereof resulting from reaction of leucine at the amino group or the carboxy group, or from the replacement of any hydrogen of glycine by a heteroatom.
