thus , the catabolic pathway of 2-amino-3-phosphonopropionic acid in tetrahymena appears to be the same route as that found in rats through deamination to produce 3-phosphonopyruvate which is converted to 2-phosphonoacetaldehyde by decarboxylation , followed by both dephosphonylation and amination of the aldehyde to give acetaldehyde and 2-aminoethylphosphonic acid , respectively .
