Infobox references

Allothreonine is an amino acid with the formula CH₃CH(OH)CH(NH₂)CO₂H. It is the diastereomer of the amino acid threonine. Like most other amino acids, allothreonine is a water-soluble colorless solid. Although not one of the proteinogenic amino acids, it has often been the subject for the synthesis of novel proteins using an expanded genetic code.^[1] Racemic allothreonine can be produced in the laboratory from bromomethoxybutyric acid.^[2]

Structure

Threonine has R, S stereochemistry at carbons 2 and 3 for the naturally occurring stereoisomer and S, R stereochemistry for its enantiomer. Allothreonine has S, S stereochemistry at carbons 2 and 3 in the natural stereoisomer, but R, R in the very rare enantiomer.

L-Allothreonine (2S,3S) and D-Allothreonine (2R,3R)

Occurrence

Katanosins are a group of potent antibiotics contain allothreonine.^[3]

Peptides containing the allothreonine residue have also been isolated from natural source.^[4]
