Abstract excerpt
Two experiments were designed to determine the tissue distribution of threonine oxidation through the threonine dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.103) pathway in pigs. The first experiment was conducted on eleven Piétrain x Large White piglets. The piglets were slaughtered at 5, 12 or 20 kg after 1 h of infusion with L-[U-14C]threonine (55 kBq/kg) mixed with unlabelled threonine (100 mg/kg). In the second experiment, four...
