abstract L-threo-3-Hydroxyhomoserine phosphate, derived from the antimetabolites L-threo-3-hydroxyaspartate and L-threo-3-hydroxyhomoserine [Shames, S. L., Ash, D. E., Wedler, F. C., and Villafranca, J. J. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 15331-15339], is a classical competitive inhibitor of threonine synthase (Ki = 6 microM) with structural elements of both substrate and product. L-2-Amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid also inhibits the enzyme competitively with a Ki (31 microM), comparable to Km for L- homoserine phosphate. In contrast, a structural analogue of Hse-P, L-2- amino-3-[(phosphonomethyl)thio]propionic acid exhibits a Ki = 0.11 microM (ca. 100-fold less than Km for L-Hse-P), along with "slow
