Release of acetyl-CoA and disposal of hydrogen
© Michael Palmer 2014
Alternate metabolic destinations of pyruvate
1. conversion to acetyl-CoA by PDH for complete degradation
or for synthesis of fatty acids and cholesterol
2. carboxylation to oxaloacetate, for use in gluconeogenesis or
in the citric acid cycle
3. synthesis of amino acids, e.g., transamination to alanine
4. reduction to lactate

phosphorylation

up?

α-Ketoglutarate dehydrogenase resembles PDH

Regulation of the citric acid cycle
●
ATP and NADH inhibit isocitrate dehydrogenase
●
NADH inhibits α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase
●
High levels of NADH will lower the oxaloacetate
concentration, which limits citrate synthase activity
