Pathways and regulation of pyruvate metabolism

  • Chapter

Abstract

Pyruvate occupies a central position in the metabolism of all animal cells, a fact easily confirmed by a cursory glance at a chart of metabolic pathways. Such is the obvious importance of pyruvate metabolism that it is surprising that so many inborn errors have been found in this area. Its metabolism has been studied extensively in recent years and a number of important advances made, especially in our understanding of its regulation.
