  Anaplerotic reactions - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anaplerotic reactions are those that form intermediates of the TCA or citric acid cycle.
This reaction is catalysed by pyruvate carboxylase, an enzyme activated by Acetyl-CoA, indicating a lack of oxaloacetate.
This is a reversible reaction forming oxaloacetate from aspartate in a transamination reaction.

 Citric acid cycle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The citric acid cycle (also known as the tricarboxylic acid cycle, the TCA cycle, or the Krebs cycle) is a series of chemical reactions of central importance in all living cells that utilize oxygen as part of cellular respiration.
In aerobic organisms, the citric acid cycle is part of a metabolic pathway involved in the chemical conversion of carbohydrates, fats and proteins into carbon dioxide and water to generate a form of usable energy.
Reactions that form intermediates of the cycle are called anaplerotic reactions.

Reactions that replenish the cycle are called anaplerotic reactions.
The net reaction is to eliminate the CO -producing steps and convert two acetyl groups into the four-carbon oxaloacetate molecule for further anabolism.
Three other reactions are common with the TCA cycle (although the enzymes of the two that are in glyoxysomes are catalyzed by different isozymes).

The potential contribution could be greater under scenarios of increased NH assimilation (and associated amino acid biosynthesis), as anaplerotic reactions are needed to replenish TCA cycle carbon intermediates.
Greater carbon enrichment of mycorrhizal roots suggests NH assimilation created a greater demand for anaplerotic reactions and soil DIC supplemented these reactions.
Supplying plants with more NH did not significantly increase the contribution of soil DIC to total plant or to root system NPP; however, plants receiving NH fixed a greater percentage of available DIC in transpired water than plants without NH additions.
