Threonine is an essential amino acid and must be obtained through food source or supplementation, since the body cannot synthesize it. It was the last amino acid identified in 1935, when it was determined to be a necessary component of protein biosynthesis and must be provided in the diet daily. Because of the importance of Threonine, it is included in most Amino Acid Formulas. Only a small amount of Threonine is found in grains, therefore, Vegetarians and those on low protein diets may be deficient in this amino acid, which is important for the Kreb's cycle and proper protein balance and function. Deficiencies may also result in irritability. Threonine has lipotropic functions and helps prevent a fatty buildup in the liver. It may have a beneficial effect on fatty livers, which result from low protein diets, and Methionine and Aspartic Acid have an effect on Threonine's role in this action. Threonine, which is a precursor for Glycine, is also found in the heart, skeletal muscle and central nervous system. By aiding in the production ot antibodies, it enhances the immune system, and it may also be beneficial to those with ALS and MS.
