The industrial production methods of L-threonine mainly include: ① synthesis method; ②Fermentation method; ③There are three methods of protein hydrolysis.Fermentation is now advocated.
1. The fermentation method is based on sugar, ammoniaHomoserine(homoserine) as culture mediumglutamateMicrococcus(glutaminus) and other products can be refined after fermentation to produce L-threonine。
Breeding with glucose as raw materialAuxotrophic typeConcurrently in the synthesis of structural analoguesFeedback suppressionWith inhibition, the acid production rate of L-threonine is 18 g/L,Corynebacterium glutamicum The acid production rate is 14g/L, and the rate of Saibacillus mucilaginis is 14g/L.

Method II: chemical synthesis:
Chemical synthesisthreonine(L-threonine) is a mixture of four optical isomers, namelyDL threonine。The amino acid composing the protein is L-threonine, so it is necessary to separate the threonine from the others, and then further carry out optical isomer resolution to obtain L-threonine.

1. Mainly used as a nutritional supplement.It is easy to generate burnt flavor and chocolate flavor by co heating with glucose, which has the effect of aroma enhancement.It can also be used for biochemical research.
5. Threonine (L-threonine) is composed by WC. Rose went fromfibrinIt was separated and identified from the hydrolysate, and has been proved to be the last to be foundessential amino acid , it is the second or third of livestock and poultryRestricted amino acidIt plays an extremely important physiological role in animals.Such as promoting growth and improving immune function;Balance the amino acids in the diet, so that the proportion of amino acids is closer toIdeal proteinSo as to reduce the requirements of livestock and poultry on protein content in feed.lackthreonine, which can lead to reduced animal feed intake, growth obstruction, decreased feed utilization, immunosuppression and other symptoms.In recent years, lysine and methionine synthetics have been widely used in feed, and threonine has gradually become a limiting factor affecting animal production performance. Further research on threonine will help effectively guide livestock and poultry production.
Threonine (L-threonine) is an amino acid that cannot be synthesized by animals themselves but is badly needed, and can be used to accurately balance feedamino acid compositionTo meet the needs of animal growth and maintenance, improve weight gain andLean meat percentage, lowerFeed meat ratio;It can improve the nutritional value of feed materials with low amino acid digestibility, and improve the production performance of low energy feed;Can reduce feedcrude proteinLevel, improve feed nitrogen utilization rate and reduce feed cost;It can be used for raising pigs, chickens, ducks and high-grade aquatic products.L—threonineIt is based on the principle of bioengineeringcorn starchAnd other raw materials are produced through liquid deep fermentation and refiningfeed additive 。Adjustable feedAmino acid balanceIt can promote growth, improve meat quality, improve the nutritional value of feed materials with low amino acid digestibility, and produce low protein feed, which helps to save protein resources, reduce the cost of feed materials, reduce the nitrogen content in livestock manure and urine, and reduce the ammonia concentration and release rate in livestock and poultry houses.Widely used to addPigletFeed, breeding pig feed, broiler feedprawnFeed and eel feed.[1]
6. Threonine (L-threonine) in vivoCatabolismMiddle, yes=not passedDeaminationandTransamination, but directly throughThreonine dehydratase、threoninedehydrogenaseAnd threonineAldolaseAmino acids that catalyze the conversion to other substances, such as threonine, can be converted to butyrylCoenzyme A、Succinyl coenzyme A、serine、glycineEtc.In addition, excess threonine can increase lysine - α - ketoneGluconic acidReductase activity. Adding proper amount of threonine in the diet can eliminate the body caused by excessive lysineWeight gainDown, liverMuscle tissueMedium protein/deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)Ribonucleic acid(RNA)/DNA ratio decreased.Addition of threonine can also reduceTryptophanOr growth inhibition caused by excessive methionine.It is reported that the absorption of threonine by chicken is mostlyduodenum, crop andGlandular stomachThe absorbed threonine is rapidly transformed into liver protein and deposited in the body.[1]
