| 4.2.3.1 | analysis |
continuous, coupled spectrophotometric threonine synthase assay. The sequential actions of threonine deaminase and hydroxyisocaproate dehydrogenase convert the L-Thr product of TS to alpha-ketobutyrate and then to 2-hydroxybutyrate, respectively, and are monitored as the decrease in absorbance at 340 nm resulting from the concomitant oxidation of beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide to NAD+ by hydroxyisocaproate dehydrogenase |

| 4.2.3.1 | medicine |
the necessity of homoserine and/or threonine biosynthetic genes encoding aspartate kinase (HOM3), homoserine kinase (THR1) and threonine synthase (THR4) for Cryptococcus neoformans growth, particularly at physiologically relevant temperatures, makes threonine biosynthetic genes ideal anti-cryptococcal drug targets |
