Question

The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the synthesis of acetyl-CoA, a very important molecule in cellular metabolism. The reaction catalyzed by the pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme complex is shown below. This reaction is tightly regulated, because it is essentially irreversible.

Which of the following conditions is most likely to lead to the inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase in cells? (select two answers)

  1. High concentrations of acetyl-CoA
  2. High concentrations of pyruvate
  3. High concentrations of NADH
  4. High concentrations of NAD+
  5. High concentrations of CoA
NAD* NADH
