2 Cells normally condense glutamine-derived oxaloacetate with glucose-derived acetyl-CoA to produce citrate (left), whereas cells with defective mitochondria reverse part of CAC using NADPH-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenases (IDHs) to convert α-ketoglutarate (α-kg) to isocitrate via reductive carboxylation (right).
