Metabolic reconstructions identify plant 3‐methylglutaconyl‐CoA hydratase that is crucial for branched‐chain amino acid catabolism in mitochondria

Summary The proteinogenic branched‐chain amino acids (BCAAs) leucine, isoleucine and valine are essential nutrients for mammals. In plants, BCAAs double as alternative energy sources when carbohydrates become limiting, the catabolism of BCAAs providing electrons to the respiratory chain and intermed...
