Abstract:
:Two isoleucine analogues and two leucine analogues were examined for their ability to replace the natural amino acid preventing the accumulation of threonine deaminase-forming potential. The procedure used to study repression by the analogues distinguishes between true repression and the formation of inactive enzyme by the analogue in question. The leucine analogue 4-azaleucine was found to replace leucine in multivalent repression of threonine deaminase-forming potential in Escherichia coli but not in Salmonella typhimurium. Another leucine analogue, trifluoroleucine, was only partially effective in causing repression in either organism. The isoleucine analogue 4-azaisoleucine was ineffective in replacing isoleucine in repression. In contrast, 4-thiaisoleucine effectively replaced isoleucine in the repression of threonine deaminase-forming potential in S. typhimurium and E. coli.
