Discovered by Berzelius in 1835 by the dry distillation of tartaric acid, it can be formed from proteins by deamination, and from glycogen and glucose by means of glycolysis.
Discovered by Berzelius in 1835 by the dry distillation of tartaric acid, it can be formed from proteins by deamination, and from glycogen and glucose by means of glycolysis. It also can give rise to glycogen by the reversal of glycolysis, gluconeogenesis. FTP, name this organic acid, CH3COCOOH, which occupies a central position in metabolism.
