3-Methylglutaconyl-CoA
3-Methylglutaconyl-CoA (MG-CoA), also known as β-methylglutaconyl-CoA, is an intermediate in the metabolism of leucine.[1][3] It is metabolized into HMG-CoA.

gollark: You can get modern fancy powerPC things at crazy prices now.
gollark: And it was an extra £10 of expense I didn't need.
gollark: I built mine myself, and have never particularly needed a CD drive.
gollark: Well, that's silly.
gollark: I was going to get a floppy drive for my computer instead, but they're too expensive for what would basically be a joke.

Energy fuel: Eventually, most Leu is broken down, providing about 6.0kcal/g. About 60% of ingested Leu is oxidized within a few hours ... Ketogenesis: A significant proportion (40% of an ingested dose) is converted into acetyl-CoA and thereby contributes to the synthesis of ketones, steroids, fatty acids, and other compounds
