Summary

Description
English: This image is a screenshot of en:Template:Leucine metabolism in humans; it is intended for external (i.e., off-wiki) use.

This illustration depicts the primary metabolic pathways of L-leucine in humans which involve β-hydroxy β-methylbutyrate and isovaleryl-CoA as metabolites.[1][2][3][4][5] A third human metabolic pathway – which accounts for a very small fraction of leucine metabolism and involves the conversion of L-leucine into β-leucine by leucine aminomutase[3] – is not depicted in this image. Of the two major pathways, L-leucine is mostly metabolized into isovaleryl-CoA, while only about 5% is metabolized into HMB.[1][2][3]

"Metabolic impairment diverts methylcrotonyl CoA to 3-hydroxyisovaleryl CoA in a reaction catalyzed by enoyl-CoA hydratase (22, 23). 3-Hydroxyisovaleryl CoA accumulation can inhibit cellular respiration either directly or via effects on the ratios of acyl CoA:free CoA if further metabolism and detoxification of 3-hydroxyisovaleryl CoA does not occur (22). The transfer to carnitine by 4 carnitine acyl-CoA transferases distributed in subcellular compartments likely serves as an important reservoir for acyl moieties (39–41). 3-Hydroxyisovaleryl CoA is likely detoxified by carnitine acetyltransferase producing 3HIA-carnitine, which is transported across the inner mitochondrial membrane (and hence effectively out of the mitochondria) via carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase (39). 3HIA-carnitine is thought to be either directly deacylated by a hydrolase to 3HIA or to undergo a second CoA exchange to again form 3-hydroxyisovaleryl CoA followed by release of 3HIA and free CoA by a thioesterase."
