TLDR
Aspartate kinase and two homoserine dehydrogenases were partially purified from 4-day-old pea seedlings and the activity of both peaks was inhibition by aspartate and cysteine and one was inhibited by threonine.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
The aspartic acid metabolic pathway, an exciting and essential pathway in plants.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the recent literature and discussed possible methods by which the concentrations of the limiting amino acids may be increased in the seeds, and discussed in this paper possible methods for increasing the nutritive value of all cereal and legume crops.
Journal ArticleDOI
The biosynthesis and metabolism of the aspartate derived amino acids in higher plants
TL;DR: The essential amino acids lysine, threonine, methionine and isoleucine are synthesised in higher plants via a common pathway starting with aspartate through the regulation of the pathway, and the properties of the key enzymes described.

Synthesis of the Aspartate Family and Branched-Chain Amino Acids
TL;DR: The sequences of biochemical transformations involved in the synthesis of the aspartate family and branched-chain amino acids in multicellular plants are similar to those that occur in microorganisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intracellular localization of aspartate kinase and the enzymes of threonine and methionine biosynthesis in green leaves.
TL;DR: Threonine, like lysine, is synthesized only in the chloroplast, the last step in methionine biosynthesis occurs largely in the cytoplasm, and hence S-adenosylmethionine synthesis, is not found in any organelle fraction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lysine overproducer mutants with an altered dihydrodipicolinate synthase from protoplast culture of Nicotiana sylvestris (Spegazzini and Comes).
TL;DR: Crosses with wild type plants indicated that the mutation conferring insensitivity to feedback in DHPS, with as result overproduction of lysine and resistance to AEC, was inherited as a single dominant nuclear gene.

Protein Measurement with the Folin Phenol Reagent
TL;DR: Procedures are described for measuring protein in solution or after precipitation with acids or other agents, and for the determination of as little as 0.2 gamma of protein.

On the Nature of Allosteric Transitions: A Plausible Model
TL;DR: "It is certain that all bodies whatsoever, though they have no sense, yet they have perception, and whether the body be alterant or alterec, evermore a perception precedeth operation; for else all bodies would be like one to another."
