The chemical reactions and pathways involving monocarboxylic acids, any organic acid containing one carboxyl (COOH) group or anion (COO-). The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of propionate, the anion derived from propionic acid. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of propionate, the anion derived from propionic acid. The chemical reactions and pathways involving propionate, the anion derived from propionic (propanoic) acid, a carboxylic acid important in the energy metabolism of ruminants. The anaerobic conversion of pyruvate to propionate, yielding energy in the form of ATP; an alternative to the acrylate pathway to produce propionate. The chemical reactions and pathways involving propionate that occur in the methylmalonyl pathway. The anaerobic enzymatic conversion of lactate to propionate, concomitant with the oxidation of lactate to acetate and CO2 and yielding energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The chemical reactions and pathways involving carboxylic acids, any organic acid containing one or more carboxyl (COOH) groups or anions (COO-). The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of glutamate into other compounds, including propionate. The chemical reactions and pathways involving propionate that occur in the methylcitrate cycle.
