TCA cycle is not only a pathway for oxidation of two carbon units, but is also a major pathway for interconversion of metabolites arising from transamination and deamination of amino acids, and providing the substrates
for amino acid synthesis by transamination, as well as for gluconeogenesis and fatty acid symthesis.TCA cycle is both cataolic and anabolic in nature hence it is also regardedd as amphibolic reaction.
