Isocitrate dehydrogenase (mitochondrial NAD+-dependent IDH3)
Cofactors used
Clinical / pharmacological. Rate-limiting TCA step; IDH1/2 neomorphic mutations produce 2-hydroxyglutarate in glioma/AML
What it does, reaction by reaction
Citric Acid Cycle (TCA / Krebs Cycle) Energy Metabolism & Cellular Respiration · Mitochondrial matrix
Isocitrate + NAD+ → oxalosuccinate + NADH + H+; oxalosuccinate → alpha-ketoglutarate + CO2
Converts Isocitrate NAD+ into Oxalosuccinate NADH H+
› Notes
Required cofactors: NAD+ and Mg2+ or Mn2+. This is an essentially irreversible, rate-limiting regulatory step of the cycle; the CO2 released in the first turn is not necessarily derived from the newly introduced acetyl carbons.

What accelerates and inhibits it
Regulation is pathway-specific, so each context is listed separately
Citric Acid Cycle (TCA / Krebs Cycle)
Listed there as: Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH3)
ADP, Ca2+ in muscle
ATP, NADH
Ca2+ released during contraction activates IDH3; hormonal effects are largely indirect through energy demand and substrate supply
