title: Inhibition of Escherichia coli biodegradative threonine dehydratase by pyruvate.
abstract: Pyruvate inhibits Escherichia coli K-12 biodegradative threonine dehydratase activity by a mechanism distinct from product inhibition by alpha-ketobutyrate and catabolite inactivation by intermediary metabolites.
