Glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) is an important intermediate for glucose to get into cells.

Pyruvate Dehydrogenase (PDH) plays an important role in carbohydrate metabolism.

Aconitase (aconitate hydratase) is an iron-sulfur protein that catalyzes the stereo-specific isomerization of citrate to isocitrate via cis-aconitate in the TCA cycle.

α-Ketoglutarate Dehydrogenase (α-KGDH) is an important enzyme in the citric acid cycle.

Succinate Dehydrogenase (SDH) or respiratory complex II or succinate-coenzyme Q reductase (SQR) is an enzyme complex that is present in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

α-Ketoglutarate (α-KG) is a keto acid and is an important intermediate in the Krebs cycle, locating after isocitrate and before succinyl CoA.

Amylase is an enzyme that break starch down to sugar. Amylase is present in the saliva of humans.

Luciferase is a useful tool for sensitive measurement of ATP levels, but the conventional method are usually unstable.

Glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) is an important intermediate for glucose to get into cells.

Hexokinases phosphorylates glucose to generate glucose-6-phosphate, the initial step in glucose metabolism.
