(a) Thiamine pyrophosphate
(b) Lipoic acid
(c) PHDC
(d) HETPP
(e) Nucleoside diphosphate kinase
Introduction:
Citric acid cycle is the row of biochemical reactions that aerobic organisms use to produce chemical energy trapped in the two-carbon acetyl group present in the acetyl-CoA. This acetyl-CoA comprises an acetyl group, which is taken from the breaking of lipids and carbohydrates.
