From: Stoichiometric estimates of the biochemical conversion efficiencies in tsetse metabolism
The biochemical pathways involved in digestive conversion in tsetse. The biochemical conversion pathways used by tsetse. Amino acids from the bloodmeal (hexagons) enter the reactions of conversion as Krebs cycle constituents (rectangles), as shown by the arrows. The dark area (grey) includes the Krebs cycle, the lighter area (blue) outlines the pathways of fat creation and catabolism, and the lightest area (green) shows the reactions of uric acid formation.
