what about the anaplerotic rxn of ornithine synthesis from glutamate?

should add it up

Ornithine does not affect the Citric Acid Cycle directly, it is not an intermediate. It shouldn't be considered an anaplerotic reaction.

What about the reaction catalyzed by phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase:

phosphoenol pyruvate + CO₂ + GDP --> oxaloacetate + GTP

What about the anaplerotic reactions in other lifeforms?

There are anaplerotic reactions that are not found in animals, such as the glyoxylate cycle. I think that they should probably be added to the page, or at least referred to. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.175.156.215 (talk) 04:45, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Classification of aspartate transaminase reaction as anaplerotic per se?

The conversion of aspartate to oxaloacetate via aspartate transaminase is listed as one of the five anaplerotic reactions. By itself, this is incomplete as the conversion requires alpha-ketoglutarate, a TCA cycle intermediate, although this is not mentioned in the table. The alpha-ketoglutarate must be regenerated from the glutamate produced, which requires the cooperation of a second enzyme, either glutamate dehydrogenase of another transaminase. This should be mentioned. Socialambulator (talk) 13:42, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
