'''ETS pathway types''' are linked to ETS substrate types in mitochondrial [[SUIT protocols]]. Mitochondrial pathways are stimulated by fuel substrates (CHNO) feeding electrons into the [[electron transfer system]] (ETS) at different levels of integration and in the presence or absence of inhibitors acting on specific enzymes in these pathways. Distinction of five ETS pathway types provides the rationale for defining [[categories of SUIT protocols]].
 
'''ETS pathway type 1''' is stimulated by artificial electron donors (e.g. [[TMPD]], Tm) essentially bypassing the ETS, reducing [[cytochrome c |cytochrome ''c'']] and feeding electrons to cytochrome ''c'' oxidase (CIV) or alternative oxidases (single enzymatic step), with oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor.
 
'''ETS pathway type 2''' is stimulated by duroquinol (DQ) feeding electrons into Complex III (CIII) with further electron transfer to CIV and oxygen.
 
'''ETS pathways type 3''' feed electrons from [[NADH]], [[FADH2 |FADH<sub>2</sub>]], [[succinate]], [[glycerophosphate]] 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.
