Intracellular relationships involving the glyoxylate cycle in plant cells

Description
Fatty acids released in lipid bodies are oxidized in glyoxysomes to acetyl-CoA, which can also come directly from acetate.

Acetyl-CoA is then converted to succinate in the glyoxylate cycle, and the succinate is transported to mitochondria.

There it is converted in the citric acid cycle to oxaloacetate, which is readily converted to sugars by gluconeogenesis.
