Alpha-Ketobutyric acid
Alpha-ketobutyric acid is a product of the lysis of cystathionine. It is also one of the degradation products of threonine. It can be converted to propionyl-CoA (and subsequently methylmalonyl CoA, which can be converted to succinyl CoA, a CAC intermediate), and thus enter the citric acid cycle. See also
