Highlights
This essay reviews some of the types of problems under investigation during the period of 1940 –1950 and the influence two exceptional scientists would have on my early development as a biochemist
A new finding did emerge, namely, in its conversion to liver glycogen the carboxyl carbon of lactic acid is replaced in part with carbon originating from carbon dioxide (4, 5)
Krebs initially proposed the involvement of a seven-carbon compound, oxalcitraconic acid, which by oxidative decarboxylation would yield the six-carbon citric acid
