Biochem/physiol Actions

3-Hydroxynorvaline (HNV) is a microbial, α amino acid threonine analogue which has antiviral activity (herpes virus) and is toxic to mammalian cells (embryotoxic and teratogenic) presumably via incorporation into proteins. 3-Hydroxynorvaline may be used as an unnatural amino acid to study the fidelity of protein translation at the level of acyl-tRNA editing. 3-Hydroxynorvaline may also be used to study enzymes and molecules involved in threonine metabolism.

The importance of threonine in the Asn-X-Thr recognition sequence for asparagine-linked glycosylation was tested by examining the effect of a threonine analog, beta-hydroxynorvaline, on co-translational glycosylation in Krebs' II ascites tumor lysates. beta-Hydroxynorvaline inhibited the glycosylation of the alpha subunit

Crustaceans express several classes of receptor genes in their antennules, which house olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) and non-olfactory chemosensory neurons. Transcriptomics studies reveal that candidate chemoreceptor proteins include variant Ionotropic Receptors (IRs) including both co-receptor IRs and tuning IRs, Transient

The threonine analog beta-hydroxynorvaline is an inhibitor of asparagine-linked glycosylation. In the presence of the analog human fibroblasts synthesized cathepsin D molecules containing two, one, or no oligosaccharides. The nonglycosylated cathepsin D precursor was but a minor species and was

Treatment of HSV-infected cells with 5-10 mM beta-hydroxynorvaline (Hnv), a threonine analog, specifically affects herpesvirus DNA replication: both the rate of and total DNA synthesis are reduced, the former approximately 15-fold by Hnv (6 h post-infection) and the latter by
