About this document
Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex Overview by Vikas Viki is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, which exists in the mitochondrion and converts pyruvate to acetyl-CoA, linking glycolysis to the citric acid cycle. It notes that pyruvate enters the mitochondrion and is converted to acetyl-CoA by the multi-enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase complex located in the mitochondrial matrix. This complex contains three enzymes and five coenzymes that facilitate the reaction, ultimately generating acetyl-CoA from pyruvate, carbon dioxide, and NADH. While the n
