The intracellular glutamate concentration is nearly 10-fold higher than the Km value, but intracellular cysteine concentrations approximate the apparent Km value [10] indicating that cysteine may be a limiting substrate for GCL
45 The second step is an irreversible rate-limiting reaction catalyzed by branched-chain -keto acid dehydrogenase (BCKDH), which is phosphorylated and inactivated by the specific kinase BCKDH kinase (BCKDK) and dephosphorylated and activated by Protein phosphatase 1 K (PPM1K)
Each stage of respiration, from glycolysis in the cytoplasm to the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria, depends on NAD+/NADH to carry reducing equivalents, thereby driving the production of cellular energy
