Krebs Hansleit Cycle is also called Ornithyine cycle or Urea Cyle.
The major role is played by 3 carboxylic / amino acids which are as follows :
  • Ornithine
  • Sitrulline
  • Arginin
​​These all are non-protein amino acids.
Hope this helps..

Kindly note you used the word only Kreb , which is absolutely wrong . Anyone can get confused in this.
Note : If u write only Krebs cycle then it can even mean to someone ...kreb cycle in mitochondria which do not require those acids (aerobic respiration).
so u must completely write the whole name i.e Krebs Hansleit  to make ur question clear.
