ltaE low-specificity L-threonine aldolase [Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: ltaE
Official Full Name: low-specificity L-threonine aldolase
Primary source: ECOCYC:G6455
Locus tag: b0870
See related: ASAP:ABE-0002954
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: PROVISIONAL
Organism: Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655 (strain: K-12, substrain: MG1655)
Lineage: Bacteria; Pseudomonadota; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia
Also known as: ECK0861; ltaA; ybjU
Summary: The L-threonine aldolase encoded by the ltaA gene is of the low-specificity type; it can act on both L-threonine and L-allo-threonine as well as L-threo-phenylserine and L-erythro-phenylserine, but does not utilize the D isomers. [More information is available at EcoCyc: G6455].
