Abbreviations: 3PGA, 3-phosphoglycerate; ALA, alanine; CIT, citrate; FUM, fumarate; LAC, lactate; MAL, malate; SER, serine; PEP, phosphoenolpyruvate; PYR, pyruvate; SUC, succinate. Measurements taken at t = 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, and 20 min were fitted to the INST-MFA model. Note that the MID of 3PGA could not be accurately quantified in the SA590-PK (−thiamin) experiment.
