Peptide PHI         
Peptide histidine isoleucine; Peptide phi
Peptide PHI, also known as peptide histidine isoleucine, is a peptide which functions as a hormone. This peptide contains a composition of 27 amino acids with histidine on the N-terminus and isoleucine on the C-terminus.
Jasmonate         
  • Major components of the jasmonate pathway
CLASS OF PLANT HORMONES
Jasmonates; (+)-7-iso-jasmonoyl-L-isoleucine; Jasmonyl-isoleucine; JA-Ile; Jasmonic acid methyl ester
Jasmonate (JA) and its derivatives are lipid-based plant hormones that regulate a wide range of processes in plants, ranging from growth and photosynthesis to reproductive development. In particular, JAs are critical for plant defense against herbivory and plant responses to poor environmental conditions and other kinds of abiotic and biotic challenges.

Wikipedia

Isoleucine

Isoleucine (symbol Ile or I) is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins. It contains an α-amino group (which is in the protonated −NH+
3
form under biological conditions), an α-carboxylic acid group (which is in the deprotonated −COO form under biological conditions), and a hydrocarbon side chain with a branch (a central carbon atom bound to three other carbon atoms). It is classified as a non-polar, uncharged (at physiological pH), branched-chain, aliphatic amino acid. It is essential in humans, meaning the body cannot synthesize it, and must be ingested in our diet. Isoleucine is synthesized from pyruvate employing leucine biosynthesis enzymes in other organisms such as bacteria. It is encoded by the codons AUU, AUC, and AUA.

Examples of use of isoleucine
1. The clysis which contains 14 kinds of amino acid including leucine, isoleucine and valine promotes the composition of muscular protein, increases the protein composition in liver and controls the rise of plasma and aromatic amino acid.
