NADH - ID; ATP - CS; Citrate - CS

Explanation:

The citric acid cycle also called the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) or Kreb's cycle is a catabolic pathway for aerobic organisms. In the cycle, acetyl-coA is metabolized in a series of steps.

The regulation of the cycle is done by the availability of substrates produced within the cycle. It is known as feedback inhibition.

Succinyl-CoA - High concentration of succinyl-CoA inhibits a-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase.

Citrate - CS. Citrate synthase catalyses the combination of acety-CoA with oxaloacetic acid to form citrate. High concentration of citrate inhibits it.

NADH - For isocitrate to be converted to oxalosuccinate, it needs to bind with NAD+. ID catalyses the reaction. NADH inhibits ID by displacing NAD+

ATP Enzymes - CS. ATP inhibits citrate synthase through allosteric inhibition. As more ATP is produces, citrate synthase becomes less saturated with acetyl-CoA, therefore there is less acetyl-Co A to form citrate.
