Pentose Phosphate Cycle

This review article gives a survey of principal pathways that lead to the biosynthesis of the proteinogenic amino acids of the alanine-valine-leucine group starting with pyruvic acid from the glycolytic pathway and serine-cysteine-glycine group starting with 3-phospho-d-glyceric acid from the glycolytic pathway. A survey is further given to the aromatic and heterocyclic amino acids (phenylalanine, tyrosine, tryptophan, histidine) starting with 3-phosphoenolpyruvic acid from the glycolytic pathway and d-erythrose 4-phosphate, an intermediate in the pentose phosphate cycle and Calvin cycle.

Pentose Pathway

1. Investigations of the mechanism of the non-oxidative segment of the pentose phosphate cycle in isolatd hepatocytes by prediction-labelling studies following the metabolism of [2-14C]-, [5-14C]- and [4,5,6-14C]glucose are reported. The 14C distribution patterns in glucose 6-phosphate show that the reactions of the L-type pentose pathway in hepatocytes. 2. Estimates of the quantitative contribution of the L-type pentose cycle are the exclusive form of the pentose cycle to glucose metabolism have been made. The contribution of the L-type pentose cycle to the metabolism of glucose lies between 22 and 30% in isolated hepatocytes. 3. The distribution of 14C in the carbon atoms of glucose 6-phosphate following the metabolism of [4,5,6-14C]- and [2-14C]glucose indicate that gluconeogenesis from triose phosphate and non-oxidative formation of pentose 5-phosphate do not contribute significantly to randomization of 14C in isolated hepatocytes. The transaldolase exchange reaction between fructose 6-phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is very active in these cells.
