The TCA cycle is a broadly conserved metabolic pathway that harnesses high-energy electrons from fuel sources.
“At the nexus of both catabolic and anabolic metabolism lies the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, a broadly conserved metabolic pathway consisting of a cyclic series of chemical reactions that harness high-energy electrons from fuel sources (1, 2, 3).”

In 1937, Hans Krebs showed that succinate could be synthesized by animal tissues in the presence of pyruvate.
“In 1937, Hans Krebs (1, 32) showed that succinate could be synthesized by animal tissues in the presence of pyruvate, leading him to speculate that succinate may arise from citrate oxidation downstream of pyruvate.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
