Alloisoleucine is an amino acid with the formula CH₃CH₂CH(CH₃)CH(NH₂)CO₂H. It is the diastereomer of isoleucine, differing in the stereochemistry within the side chain. Alloisoleucine exists as two enantiomers, of which the L isomer occurs naturally. L-Alloisoleucine occurs in healthy serum in only trace amounts, except for individuals suffering from maple syrup urine disease.
