Dietary L-homoserine spares threonine in chicks.
Four chick bioassays were conducted to evaluate the threonine (Thr) replacement value of l-homoserine (HS). Growth rate was increased (P < 0.05) by dietary addition of 800 mg l-HS/kg diet to a purified diet severely deficient in Thr or by the addition of 800 or 1000 mg of l-HS/kg diet to a corn-peanut meal diet distinctly deficient in Thr. The addition of an isomolar level of alpha-ketobutyrate...

متن کاملHomoserine kinase from Escherichia coli K-12: properties, inhibition by L-threonine, and regulation of biosynthesis.
We have partially purified homoserine kinase from a genetically derepressed strain of Escherichia coli K-12. The optimum pH of the enzyme-substrate reaction was 7.8 and the K(m) values for l-homoserine and adenosine 5'-triphosphate were both 3 x 10(-4) M. K(+) (or NH(4) (+)) as well as Mg(2+) were required for its activity. The sedimentation coefficient determined by ultracentrifugation in a su...
متن کاملIntestinal mucin dynamics: response of broiler chicks and White Pekin ducklings to dietary threonine.
Mucin dynamics may be particularly sensitive to a Thr deficiency due to the high concentration and structural importance of Thr in the mucin protein backbone. Intestinal mucin secretion, expression of mucin gene (MUC2), and histological characteristics were investigated in male broilers and White Pekin ducklings offered diets containing 3.3, 5.8, or 8.2 g of Thr/kg in 4 studies. Seventy-two bir...
متن کاملEffects of Dietary Levels of Glycine, Threonine and Protein on Threonine Efficiency and Threonine Dehydrogenase Activity in Hepatic Mitochondria of Chicks
This study was carried out to evaluate the relationship between threonine (Thr) efficiency and Thr dehydrogenase (TDG) activity as an indicator of Thr oxidation on chicks fed with levels of diets (CP [17.5% and 21.5%] and Thr [3.8 and 4.7 g/100 g CP]; glycine [Gly][0.64% and 0.98%] and true digestible Thr [dThr] [0.45% and 0.60%]). Calculation of the Thr efficiency was based on N-balance data a...
