1. The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex converts pyruvate to acetyl-CoA. What are the steps that pyruvate undergoes? Which coenzymes are involved in each step?
2. Mitochondrial extracts from pigeon breast muscle were incubated with
Experiment 1: Amytal, an inhibitor of complex I
Experiment 2: Malonate, a competitive inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase
Which experiment will yield more ATP when the cycle is primed with intermediates?
Step A: With the help of TPP Pyruvate is decarboxylated by pyruvate dehydrogenase
Step B: The carbon of TPP; between the N and the S is oxidized and transferred as the acetyl group to lipoamide forming hydroxyethyl-TPP. CO2 is given off.
StepC: E2 (dihydrolipoyltransacetylase) oxidizes hydroxyethyl- to acetyl- and then transfers acetyl- to CoA, forming acetyl-CoA.
Step E: NAD+ is reduced to NADH.

The step in metabolism that converts pyruvate to acetyl-CoA involves pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is shown. NADH NAD Correm A CEO CH co G Pyruvate AwA What is true about this step? ATP is required but not shown The enzyme is a multi-enzyme complex involving TPP. It requires O2 It is an easily reversible reaction
A) Acetyl coA is made from pyruvate in the [ Select ] ["mitochondrial matrix", "cytoplasm", "", ""] by [ Select ] ["pyruvate dehydrogenase", "succinate dehydrogenase"] complex. In this process, the acetyl group is moved between enzymes within the complex by the [ Select ] ["lipoamide", "TPP"] . The [ Select ] ["dihydrolipoyl transacetylase", "pyruvate dehydrogenase component"] is the enzyme in which acetyl coA is actually formed. The [ Select ] ["FADH2", "lipoamide"] in the dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase donates two electrons to...
