L-allo-threonine aldolase

id: l-allo-threonine-aldolase-271-8448890
title: L-allo-threonine aldolase
text: L-allo-threonine aldolase is an enzyme catalyzing the conversion between L-allo-threonine on one side and glycine plus acetaldehyde on another side. Artificial disabling (knockout) of this enzyme in wild bacteria has no significant effect. However such disabling suppresses the growth of mutants that already lack other enzyme, serine hydroxymethyltransferase. Hence L-allo-threonine aldolase provides the alternative pathway for cellular glycine when serine hydroxymethyltransferase is inert. E.coli
