Abstract excerpt
The aspartate-derived amino acid pathway in plants is an intensively studied metabolic pathway, because of the biosynthesis of the four essential amino acids lysine, threonine, isoleucine and methionine. The pathway is mainly controlled by the key regulatory enzymes aspartate kinase (AK; EC 2.7.2.4), homoserine dehydrogenase (HSDH; EC 1.1.1.3) and 4-hydroxy-tetrahydrodipicolinate synthase (EC 4.3.3.7), formerly...
