TADA, K. and ARAKAWA, Ts. Hyperglycinemia and propionate carboxylation. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1970, 102 (3), 313-314 The oxidation of propionate and methylmalonate was investigated in leukocytes from a patient with hyperglycin emia. It was found that the patient's leukocytes could oxidize both propionate and methylmalonate normally. These findings suggest that hyperglycinemia con sists of primary type and secondary type.•\hyperglycinemia; propionate carboxylation; methylmalonic aciduria

Propionic acidemia in the newborn.
Propionic acidemia is a rare, autosomal, recessively inherited inborn error of propionate metabolism. It presents most often as a neonatal life threatening emergency with metabolic acidosis, hyperammonemia, hyperglycinemia and hyper gylcinuria. Since its first description in a male infant with episodic metabolic acidosis and hyperglycinemia(l), more than 100 cases have been reported. The presen...
متن کاملThe carboxylation of propionic acid by liver mitochondria.
The glycogenic effect of propionic acid (1, 2) results from the conversion of propionate carbon into carbohydrate (3, 4) and not from an indirect stimulation of carbohydrate production from other sources. The finding (5,6) that extracts of mitochondria can convert propionate and bicarbonate to an organic acid identified as succinic acid (6) provided an explanation for this glycogenic effect. Th...
متن کاملA proposed pathway for catabolism of propionate in methanogenic cocultures.
A metabolic pathway for the catabolism of propionate is proposed. This pathway incorporates a transcarboxylation reaction involving propionyl coenzyme A and oxaloacetate and a carboxylation of pyruvate to regenerate oxaloacetate. Data indicated that the proposed pathway is reversible. The proposed pathway and its apparent reversibility provide a reasonable explanation of observations obtained f...
متن کاملPathway of propionate oxidation by a syntrophic culture of Smithella propionica and Methanospirillum hungatei.
The pathway of propionate conversion in a syntrophic coculture of Smithella propionica and Methanospirillum hungatei JF1 was investigated by (13)C-NMR spectroscopy. Cocultures produced acetate and butyrate from propionate. [3-(13)C]propionate was converted to [2-(13)C]acetate, with no [1-(13)C]acetate formed. Butyrate from [3-(13)C]propionate was labeled at the C2 and C4 positions in a ratio of...
متن کاملAcceleration of gluconeogenesis from propionate by Dl-carnitine in the rat kidney cortex.
1. The rate of gluconeogenesis from propionate in rat kidney-cortex slices was stimulated up to 3.5-fold by dl-carnitine and by bicarbonate, and was inhibited by inorganic phosphate or high concentrations of propionate (above 3mm). 2. The stimulatory effect of carnitine was dependent on the bicarbonate concentration and could be replaced at low propionate concentration by addition of 25mm-bicar...
