Ground my dude! wanna know how I know! I checked the other answers on the other one :)
The substrate of the citric acid cycle which can block respiration when it is present in excess is MALONATE. Malonate inhibits respiration by competing with succinate dehydrogenase for its acitve site. Malonate binds to the active site without reacting, thus competing with succinate. This disrupts the cellular respiration in the cell.
Answer: they damage proteins and DNA
<span>Oxidative stress and other cell processes induce the formation of highly reactive aldehydes that react directly with DNA of a microbial organism, forming aldehyde-derived DNA </span>adducts lead to proteins and DNA damage. DNA damage causes deregulation of cell homeostasis and thus contributes to the disease phenotype.

Answer:
The genetic material of most of the organism is Dexoxy-ribonucleic acid OR DNA which are formed of the monomer unit called nucleotide.
Each nucleotide is composed of a 5-C deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group and 4 types of nitrogenous bases mainly adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine.
It is the sequence of these nitrogenous bases which determine the fate of a cell as these nitrogenous bases are read by the ribosome in the form of triplets called codons where each codon codes for specific amino acids. These amino acids bind to each other via peptide bonds to form proteins.
Thus, these nitrogenous bases control the important property of the cell.
