3rd Rxn Citric Acid Cycle?  Isocitrate Oxidized Alphaketoglutate 

In the third reaction of the citric acid cycle, isocitrate (C6) is oxidized to alpha-ketoglutarate (C5), with the removal of CO2 and the reduction of NAD+ to NADH + H+.

En la tercera reacción del ciclo de Krebs, el isocitrato (C6) se oxida a α-cetoglutarato (C5), liberando CO2 y reduciendo NAD+ a NADH + H+.
