Most fatty acids have an even number of carbons and, therefore, are completely metabolized to acetyl-CoA. A fatty acid with an odd number of carbons is metabolized to acetyl-CoA and one equivalent of propionyl-CoA. The following two reactions convert propionyl-CoA into succinyl-CoA, a citric acid cycle intermediate, so it can be further metabolized. Each of the reactions requires a coenzyme. Identify the coenzyme for each step. From what vitamins are the coenzymes derived?
When pyruvate is reduced by NADH to lactate, which hydrogen in lactate comes from NADH?
The catabolism of several amino acids generates succinyl-CoA. Describe the series of reactions that are required to convert mitochondrial succinyl-CoA to cytosolic oxaloacetate that can be used for gluconeogenesis.
