'''ETS substrate types''' are linked to ETS pathway types in mitochondrial [[SUIT protocols]]. These are reduced substrates feeding electrons into the [[electron transfer system]] (ETS) at different levels of mitochondrial pathways. Distinction of five mt-pathway types provides the rationale for defining [[categories of SUIT protocols]].
 
'''ETS substrates type 1''' may be artificial electron donors (e.g. [[TMPD]], Tm) essentially bypassing the ETS, reducing [[cytochrome c |cytochrome ''c'']] and feeding electrons directly into the terminal electron acceptor, cytochrome ''c'' oxidase (CIV) or alternative oxidases (single enzymatic step).
 
'''ETS substrates type 2''' ([[Coenzyme Q]]) feed electrons into Complex III (CIII) with further electron transfer downstream of the [[Q-junction]].
 
'''ETS substrates type 3''' ([[NADH]], [[FADH2 |FADH<sub>2</sub>]], [[succinate]], [[glycerophosphate]]) feed electrons into respiratory complexes directly upstream of the [[Q-junction]]. NADH is the substrate of [[Complex I]] (CI). FADH<sub>2</sub> is the substrate of [[electron transferring flavoprotein]] (CETF) localized on the inner side of the inner mt-membrane. Succinate is the substrate of [[succinate dehydrogenase]] (SDH, CII) localized on the inner side of the inner mt-membrane. [[Glycerophosphate]] is the substrate of [[glycerophosphate dehydrogenase complex]] (CGpDH) localized on the outer face of the inner mt-membrane. [[Choline]] is the type 3 substrate of [[choline dehydrogenase]].
 
'''ETS pathway type 4''' feeds electrons into dehydrogenases and enzyme systems upstream of the type 3 pathway level. Electron transfer from type 4 substrates (N) converges at the [[N-junction]]. Representative '''N-junction substrates''' are pyruvate, glutamate and malate, and also citrate, oxoglutarate and others. The corresponding dehydrogenases ([[Pyruvate dehydrogenase |PDH]], [[Glutamate dehydrogenase |GDH]], [[Malate dehydrogenase |MDH]] and [[Malic enzyme |mtME]]; [[Isocitrate dehydrogenase |IDH]], [[Oxoglutarate dehydrogenase |OgDH]]) generate NADH, the substrate of [[Complex I]] (CI). Fatty acids supporting converging electron transfer to the [[F-junction]] might also considered as type 4 substrates. However, the requirement of a combined operation of the [[F-junction]] and [[N-junction]] puts type F substrates to a higher level of pathway integration.
 
'''ETS pathway type 5''' feeds electrons into dehydrogenases and enzyme systems upstream of the type 3 pathway level with an obligatory combination of the [[F-junction]] and [[N-junction]]. '''F-junction substrates''' are fatty acids involved in β-oxidation, generating (enzyme-bound) FADH<sub>2</sub>, the substrate of [[electron transferring flavoprotein]] (CETF). Succinate does not belong to the type 4 substrates, since FADH<sub>2</sub> is the ''product'' of CII, whereas FADH<sub>2</sub> is the ''substrate'' of CETF. Fatty acid oxidation (FAO) not only depends on electron transfer through the F-junction (which is typically rate-limiting) but simultaneously generates NADH and thus depends on N-junction throughput. Hence FAO can be inhibited completely by inhibition of Complex I (CI). In addition and independent of this source of NADH, the N-junction substrate malate is required as a co-substrate for FAO in mt-preparations, since accumulation of AcetylCoA inhibits FAO in the absence of malate. Malate is oxidized in a reaction catalyzed by malate dehydrogenase to oxaloacetate (yielding NADH), which then stimulates the entry of AcetylCo into the TCA cycle catalyzed by citrate synthase.
