Cells are constantly carrying out thousands of chemical
reactions needed to keep the cell, and your body as a
whole, alive and healthy. These chemical reactions are
often linked together in chains, or pathways. All of the
chemical reactions that take place inside of a cell are
collectively called the cell’smetabolism.

Krebs Cycle is Amphibolic
There is some evidence that anaplerosisis required for a glucose-induced rise in
mitochondrial ATP production. Some amino acids (the building blocks of proteins)
enter and leave the citric acid cycle through anaplerosisand cataplerosis.

AnapleroticReactions
Protein may serve an excellent sources of nutrient energy
Catabolism of amino acids provides: succinate, oxaloacetate, fumarate,
αketoglutarate.
Pyruvate (from glycolysis) • acetyl CoA stimulates pyruvate carboxylase
Proteins can also be broken down to feed into the citric acid cycle and generate
energy
Under extreme starvation in animals or during senescence in plants
polypeptides are cleaved to amino acids, amino group is cleaved off of amino
acid forming an organic acid that can enter the citric acid cycle
