Question
Chapter 19, Problem 6RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The steps through which pyruvate from glycolysis is converted into pyruvate dehydrogenase complex are to be explained.
Concept introduction:
The breakdown of a glucose molecule to produce ATP, NADH, and pyruvate molecules is called glycolysis.
The pyruvate is the initial reacting substrate for the citric acid cycle that goes through several reactions in the presence of the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase complex to give acetyl-CoA.
The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is a set of five enzymes, namely, pyruvate dehydrogenase, hydro lipoyl transacetylase, dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase, pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase, and pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase.
