Kornberg, Hans

In a sort of reciprocal arrangement, the cell also feeds many intermediates back into the TCA cycle from other reactions. Since such reactions replenish the TCA cycle intermediates, Hans Kornberg proposed that they be called anaplerotie reactions (literally, the filling up reactions). Thus, PEP carboxylase and pyruvate carboxylase synthesize oxaloacetate from pyruvate (Figure 20.24). 

He was a member of many scientific societies, winning many awards and citations for his work and published works, including Energy Transformations in Living Matter (1957) with British biochemist Hans Kornberg. He was knighted in 1958. He died on November 22, 1981, in Oxford, England.
