Description: In all organisms a three-carbon acyl-CoA, propionyl-CoA, is generated either from the breakdown of some amino acids or from the oxidation of fatty acids with odd numbers of carbon atoms. Propionyl-CoA enters gluconeogenesis via its conversion to succinyl-CoA and then to oxaloacetate. The process involves a coenzyme derived from vitamin B12.
