A ketogenic aminoacid is an aminoacid that can be converted into ketone bodies through ketogenesis . This is in contrast to the glucogenic aminoacid s, which are converted into glucose . Ketogenic amino acids are unable to be converted to glucose as both carbon atoms in the ketone body are ultimately degraded to carbon dioxide in the citric acid cycle . In humans, two amino acids are exclusively ketogenic leucine lysine In humans, five amino acids are both ketogenic and glucogenic isoleucine phenylalanine tryptophan tyrosine threonine See also List of standard amino acids Glucogenic aminoacid Ketogenesis Metabolism External links http web.indstate.edu thcme mwking aminoacid metabolism.html Aminoacid metabolism http www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov books bv.fcgi?rid stryer.chapter.3193 Chapter on Aminoacid catabolism in Biochemistry by Jeremy Berg, John Tymoczko, Lubert Stryer.

KDEL is a sequence in the aminoacid structure of a protein which keeps it from secreting from the endoplasmic reticulum ER . It also targets proteins from other locations such as the cytoplasm to the ER. Proteins can only leave the ER after this sequence has been cleaved off. The KDEL sequence is responsible for retrieval of ER luminal proteins from the Golgi apparatus . The abbreviation KDEL is formed by the corresponding letters to each aminoacid. This letter system was defined by the IUPAC and IUBMB in 1983, and is as follows K Lysine D Aspartic acid E Glutamic acidL Leucine Therefore, the sequence in three letter code is Lysine Lys Aspartic acid Asp Glutamic acid Glu Leucine Leu .
