General Information

  • Identifier IPR029144
  • Description Threonine synthase, N-terminal
  • Number of genes 4

Abstract

This domain is found at the N terminus of many threonine synthase enzymes [ 1 ]. Threonine synthases catalyses the gamma-elimination of phosphate from L-phosphohomoserine and the beta-addition of water to produce L-threonine [ 2 ].
