The chemical reactions and pathways involving amino acids, organic acids containing one or more amino substituents. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of alanine, 2-aminopropanoic acid. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of any amino acid that requires pyruvate for its synthesis, e.g. alanine. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of any organic compound that is weakly basic in character and contains an amino or a substituted amino group. Amines are called primary, secondary, or tertiary according to whether one, two, or three carbon atoms are attached to the nitrogen atom. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of amino acids, organic acids containing one or more amino substituents. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of carboxylic acids, any organic acid containing one or more carboxyl (-COOH) groups. The chemical reactions and pathways involving any amino acid that requires pyruvate for its synthesis, e.g. alanine.
