Document Summary
What happens to pyruvate in the cell when. After pyruvate is oxidized, the citric acid cycle. Molecules: when o2 is present, pyruvate in eukaryotic cells enters a mitochondrion, where the oxidation of glucose is completed, in aerobically respiring prokaryotic cells, this process occurs in the cytosol. Oxidation of pyruvate to acetyl coa: pyruvate enters the mitochondrion via active transport, pyruvate is converted to acetyl coenzyme a (acetyl. The entry compound for the citric acid cycle in cellular respiration, formed from a two-carbon fragment of pyruvate attached to a coenzyme. This step is what links glycolysis with the citric acid cycle: oxidation of pyruvate to acetyl coa is a 3 step process: Explain the 3 steps in which pyruvate is oxidized to acetyl coa. Pyruvate enters the mitochondrion via active transport, w/ help of a transport protein. Pyruvate dehydrogenases complex catalyzes the steps: 1.
