摘要：

The essential amino acids lysine, threonine, methionine and isoleucine are synthesised in higher plants via a common pathway starting with aspartate. The regulation of the pathway is discussed in detail, and the properties of the key enzymes described, Recent data obtained from studies of regulation at the gene level and information derived from mutant and transgenic plants are also discussed. The herbicide target enzyme acetohydroxyacid synthase involved in the synthesis of the branched chain amino acids is reviewed. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
