Merger proposal[edit]

This page has the same content as ketogenic amino acid. --Ben Best:Talk 18:40, 14 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I agree there is a problem but I'm not sure how best to fix it. I see three reasonable options:
  1. Merge ketogenic amino acid and glucogenic amino acid into Amino acid § Catabolism, probably also spinning the result out into a standalone Amino acid catabolism article. I don't think this works very well with existing links (eg from Fatty_acid_metabolism) that I think assume more of a List of article.
  2. Merge them into Ketogenesis and Gluconeogenesis respectively. I'm not sure if this would adequately cover their (minor?) role in normal digestion (as opposed to catabolysis) or work well with existing links (as above).
  3. Convert them into explicit List of articles, trimming the intro down to a bare minimum that simply directs the reader to Amino acid § Catabolism and/or the appropriate Ketogenesis or Gluconeogenesis page. I think this is closest to what existing links expect but I'm not sure the subject really merits standalone List of articles.

Oppose merge. The article are already quite bare, so its hard to see that much more trimming is required. Trimming further to a pure list would remove some additional information, so I'd recommend leaving them as they are. Klbrain (talk) 23:01, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Potential inaccuracies in the representative image of the page?[edit]

An inaccurate depiction of the amino acid metabolism and how it can transform into glucose or ketone bodies and which amino acids are gluco-, keto- and ambogenic.

This image is used in med school in Umeå, Sweden during one of our lectures and is also featured in a textbook. It has the same design pattern as the image currently used to represent this page albeit with various differences.

Irregularities between the two exists, the one I post here is demonstrably inaccurate, as it does not list Threonine as being ambogenic, i.e. it is both keto- and glucogenic. I am also able to identify differences, for example, in the top right rectangle, it lists only five amino acids, while the one actively on the wikipedia page lists 6, inluding Tryptophan.

I am certain there are more errors as well, so the best thing would be if someone could verify how this actually goes. I.e. perhaps the current image that is on the page is also inaccurate in some ways?

As I am a med-student I don't think I should be the one to do it. But if all else fails, that's what I'll do... Bishiba (talk) 15:43, 19 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
