Description: which statements accurately describe the role of the cofactor fad in pyruvate dehydrogenase mark all that apply choice 1 of 6fad has a long aliphatic sidechain which attaches to a lysine to 07036

Which statements accurately describe the role of the cofactor FAD in pyruvate dehydrogenase? Mark all that apply. Choice 1 of 6:FAD has a long aliphatic sidechain, which attaches to a lysine to make a tether. Choice 2 of 6:FAD provides an imine that serves as an electrophile.

Which of the following statements about the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate in aerobic conditions in animal cells is CORRECT? One of the products of the reactions of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is the thioester of acetate. The process occurs in the cytosolic compartment of the cell. The reaction is so important to energy production that the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex operates at full speed under all conditions. Biotin participates in the decarboxylation. The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex requires coenzymes. Match each of the coenzymes in the left-hand column with the appropriate description in the right-hand column: Letter Coenzymes A) Lipoic acid B) CoA C) TPP D) FAD E) NAD A) Decarboxylates pyruvate, yielding hydroxyethyl-TPP carbanion B) Reduced by FADH C) Reduced by dihydrolipoamide D) Accepts the hydroxyethyl carbanion from TPP as an acetyl group E) Accepts the acetyl group from acetyl-dihydrolipoamide
