    hypothesize‚ for example‚ that if malate dehydrogenase will cease to do its job in Krebs cycle‚ two major problems will occur‚ as a result. First‚ malate dehydrogenase is the one of the enzymes that facilitates electron transport to NAD+ and creating NADH. Therefore‚ the final output of electron carrier NADH will be reduced to eight from ten per molecule of glucose‚ rendering the whole process less efficient. Second‚ the product of malate dehydrogenase is oxaloacetate‚ the same molecule that is
