Article Grading: The following comments were left by the quality and importance raters: (edit · history · refresh · how to use this template) This is a very good article and the pyruvate decarboxylation article should be merged into it. |

It would probably be better if we didn't merge in unrelated articles like the reviewer suggested. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.195.51.123 (talk) 19:46, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
at http://www.rpi.edu/dept/bcbp/molbiochem/MBWeb/mb1/part2/krebs.htm "Pyruvate Dehydrogenase is a large complex, with multiple copies of each of three enzymes, E1, E2, and E3. The structure of the complex is depicted in figures on p. 769 & 774 of Biochemistry, 3rd Edition, by Voet & Voet. The core of the complex consists of 60 copies of E2. At the periphery of the complex are:
- 30 copies of E1 (itself a tetramer with subunits a2b2) and
- 12 copies of E3 (a homodimer), plus 12 copies of an E3 binding protein that links E3 to E2."
This conflicts with the article.GangofOne 07:07, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
- EC number 1.2.4.1 is also a pyruvate dehydrogenase.
What about the influence of hormones like vasopressin and insulin on this reaction?Ankmin 03:22, 22 April 2006 (UTC))
