Compound	Description
hydronium ion
Carbon Dioxide	A colorless, odorless gas that can be formed by the body and is necessary for the respiration cycle of plants and animals.
glutamic acid	A non-essential amino acid naturally occurring in the L-form. Glutamic acid is the most common excitatory neurotransmitter in the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.
NADH
isovalerylaldehyde	structure in Merck Index, 9th ed, #5093
alpha-ketoglutaric acid
NAD	A coenzyme composed of ribosylnicotinamide 5'-diphosphate coupled to adenosine 5'-phosphate by pyrophosphate linkage. It is found widely in nature and is involved in numerous enzymatic reactions in which it serves as an electron carrier by being alternately oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH). (Dorland, 27th ed)
leucine	An essential branched-chain amino acid important for hemoglobin formation.
2-keto-4-methylvalerate
isopentyl alcohol	RN given refers to unlabeled parent cpd
