Ribose 5-phosphate; glutamate Phosphoenolpyruvate; chorismate Erythrose 4-phosphate; pyruvate Citrate; oxaloacetate Erythrose 4-phosphate; chorismate
Amino acids can be categorized according to the body's ability to synthesize them. Both essential and nonessential amino acids are necessary for life, but the human body is unable to synthesize some amino acids. Different pathways enable synthesis of nonessential amino acids from five precursors: pyruvate, 3-phosphoglycerate, oxaloacetate, a-ketoglutarate, and phenylalanine. Many of these pathways include a process called transamination, which is a reaction between an amino acid and an alpha-keto acid. Some non essential amino acids are synthesized in...
