Description

L-Allothreonine is a diagnostic agent that can be used to measure the glomerular filtration rate. It is a substrate molecule for the enzymes alloproteinase and threoninase, which hydrolyze it into L-serine and dicarboxylic acid. The reaction mechanism of L-allothreonine with malonic acid has been studied at different pH values by measuring the thermal expansion coefficient. L-Allothreonine is an intramolecular hydrogen donor in polymerase chain reactions, which leads to cyclic peptide formation. The enzyme activities of alloproteinase, threoninase, and cyclooxygenase have been studied in vitro using kinetic methods. L-Allothreonine is a natural amino acid that can be found in animal sources such as fish, meat, eggs, milk, yogurt, cheese and whey protein supplements. It is also available as a dietary supplement for people who cannot get enough
