The Krebs cycle occurs in the mitochondrial matrix of eukaryotic cells. This location is essential for facilitating efficient interactions between Krebs cycle enzymes, substrates, and electron carriers, and for transferring electrons to the electron transport chain located on the inner mitochondrial membrane. In prokaryotes, the reactions occur in the cytoplasm.
