Name2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase system
TypeSYSTEM
DescriptionThis enzyme system utilizes three components E1 (thiamine pyrophosphate-binding subunit, SucA), E2 (dihydrolipoamide succinyltransferase, SucB) and E3 (dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase, LpdA) for the interconversion of 2-oxoglutarate (alpha-ketoglutarate) and succinyl-CoA. In addition to lipoate and thiamine pyrophosphate, FAD is also involved. In the course of the reaction CO2 is released and and one molecule of NAD+ is converted to NADH. This reaction is an essential component of the TCA (Krebs) cycle.
