Figure 3-1. Propionyl-CoA metabolism, methionine synthesis, and intracellular<br />
cobalamin metabolism. In humans, the pathways shown are needed for the<br />
complete catabolism of compounds degraded via propionyl-CoA and for<br />
recycling homocysteine. Abbreviations: PPC, propionyl-CoA carboxylase;<br />
MCEE, methylmalonyl-CoA epimerase; MCM, AdoCbl-dependent<br />
methylmalonyl-CoA mutase; CNCbl, vitamin <strong>B12</strong>; GSCbl,<br />
glutathionylcobalamin, MSR, methionine synthase reductase; ATR,<br />
ATP:cob(I)alamin adenosyltransferase; THF, tetrahydrofolate.
