Glucogenic Amino Acids
|
can be metabolized to form pyruvate, alpha-ketoglutarate, fumarate, oxaloacetate, and succinyl-CoA
Degraded glucogenic amino acids are made into glucose precursors |
|
|
Ketogenic Amino Acids
|
can be metabolized to Acetyl CoA or Acetoacetate (Acetoacetyl CoA)
If converted to Acetoacetate, can be converted to Fatty Acids, which can be made into Ketone Bodies |
