Acetylation turns leucine into a drug by membrane transporter switching
Small changes to molecules can have profound effects on their pharmacological activity as exemplified by the addition of the two-carbon acetyl group to make drugs more effective by enhancing their pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic properties. N-acetyl-d,l-leucine is approved in France for vertigo a...
