ENZYMATIC BREAKDOWN OF THREONINE BY THREONINE ALDOLASE [PDF]
1. The enzyme which splits threonine to acetaldehyde and glycine has been partially purified from rat liver (five- to sixfold purification) and the name threonine aldolase proposed for it. 2. The general properties of threonine aldolase have been studied. The enzyme is unstable to a pH below 5. The pH optimum of the enzyme reaction is at

Bacterial catabolism of threonine. Threonine degradation initiated by L-threonine-NAD+ oxidoreductase [PDF]
1. Isolates representing seven bacterial genera capable of growth on L-threonine medium, and possessing high L-threonine 3-dehydrogenase activity, were examined to elucidate the catabolic route. 2. The results of growth, manometric and enzymic experiments indicated the catabolism of L-threonine by cleavage to acetyl-CoA plus glycine, the glycine being ...

Role of threonine dehydrogenase in Escherichia coli threonine degradation [PDF]
Threonine was used as nitrogen source by Escherichia coli K-12 through a pathway beginning with the enzyme threonine dehydrogenase. The 2-amino-3-ketobutyrate formed was converted to glycine, and the glycine was converted to serine, which acted as the actual nitrogen donor.

Threonine Requirement and Threonine Imbalance in Broiler Chickens
Three experiments were conducted to determine the effect of excess dietary protein on threonine requirement of broiler chicks to 14 d of age (Experiments 1 and 2) and to determine the threonine requirement from 16 to 28 d of age (Experiment 3). Two dietary protein levels were used in Experiments 1 and 2:20% CP in a threonine-limiting basal diet ...
