Phenylalanine, is catabolized to fumarate and acetoacetate and is therefore ketogenic and glucogenic. Also threonine, isoleucine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, and tyrosine can be either ketogenic or glucogenic.

How ketogenic amino acid converted to glucose?

Ketogenic amino acids are converted into acetyl-CoA, which can enter the Krebs cycle to produce ATP or undergo ketogenesis to produce ketone bodies. Acetyl-CoA cannot be converted back into glucose directly, as it bypasses the steps of gluconeogenesis. Glucose can be synthesized from non-ketogenic amino acids or other substrates through gluconeogenesis in the liver.
