#Unit 12. Applied Biology
  1. HDI → aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (ASA-DH) → AK (asparagine kinase) → homoserine kinase (HK) → threonine synthetase (TS).
  2. Aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (ASA-DH) → AK (asparagine kinase) → threonine synthetase (TS) → homoserine kinase (HK) → HDI.
  3. AK (asparagine kinase) → aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (ASA-DH) → HDI→ homoserine kinase (HK) → threonine synthetase (TS).
  4. Homoserine kinase (HK) → threonine synthetase (TS) → AK (asparagine kinase) → HDI →  aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (ASA-DH).
