Leu-Leu-Leu
Trileucine (Leu-Leu-Leu) is a synthetic tripeptide with the chemical formula C18H35N3O4 and CAS number 10329-75-6. It functions as an endosome escape moiety, capable of pH-dependent endosomal membrane disruption to facilitate the release of intracellular agents, such as antisense oligonucleotides. Additionally, it serves as a valuable tool for assessing the absorption characteristics of reversed-phase liquid chromatography media.
