Project Description
Product Description
L-Threonine, also known as Threonine amino acid, is an essential amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins in the human body. Threonine is abundant in meats but isn’t as common in fruits and vegetables. The “L” in L-threonine refers only to the orientation of the molecule. L-threonine is effectively the same as D-threonine. Threonine plays a key role in maintaining healthy skin and teeth. Since threonine is found largely in the central nervous system, studies have shown that it can be helpful in treating different types of depression. Here’s how it interacts in the body:
- Once in the body, threonine changes into a chemical called glycine. Glycine helps produce elastin, collagen, and muscle tissue.
- When combined with methionine (another amino acid), glycine helps process fatty acids and helps prevent liver failure.
Threonine food sources
Animal sources of threonine include lean beef, lamb, pork, collagen, gelatin, cheese. For every 100g of lean beef or lamb, there’s about 165% of your recommended dietary intake. Plant-based sources include tofu, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, wheat germ, cashews, almonds, lentils, and pistachios. The richest plant-based source for threonine is soya products, with 100g of roasted soybeans it also gives you around 165% of your recommended dietary intake of threonine.
Benefits
Threonine (Thr amino acid) has a wide range of health benefits. It fortifies immune function, promotes healthy liver function, and supports the joints, connective tissue, and bones. Threonine also supports the nervous system and contributes to healthy mood and sleep.

Application
L-Threonine has been used for the selection of transformed cells. It has also been used to study the effects of amino acids in promoting food consumption in Drosophila melanogaster.
