EC 1.2.5.1     
Accepted name: pyruvate dehydrogenase (quinone)
Reaction: pyruvate + ubiquinone + H2O = acetate + CO2 + ubiquinol
Other name(s): pyruvate dehydrogenase (ambiguous); pyruvic dehydrogenase (ambiguous); pyruvic (cytochrome b1) dehydrogenase (incorrect); pyruvate:ubiquinone-8-oxidoreductase; pyruvate oxidase (ambiguous); pyruvate dehydrogenase (cytochrome) (incorrect)
Systematic name: pyruvate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase
Comments: Flavoprotein (FAD) [1]. This bacterial enzyme is located on the inner surface of the cytoplasmic membrane and coupled to the respiratory chain via ubiquinone [2,3]. Does not accept menaquinone. Activity is greatly enhanced by lipids [4,5,6]. Requires thiamine diphosphate [7]. The enzyme can also form acetoin [8].
