Computer artwork of the molecule of Leucine, an essential amino acid which makes up approximately 9% of the body's protein structures. Leucine is involved in muscle repair and growth together with other amino acids as Isoleucine and valine. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour-coded: carbon (black), hydrogen (white), nitrogen (blue) and oxygen (red). Illustration.
