Answer: change the shape of the active site of an enzyme

Explanation:

Enzymes are also sensitive to pH . Changing the pH of its surroundings will also change the shape of the active site of an enzyme. ... This contributes to the folding of the enzyme molecule, its shape, and the shape of the active site. Changing the pH will affect the charges on the amino acid molecules.

Answer:

E1: Pyruvate dehydrogenase, TPP, oxidative decarboxylation reaction

E2: Dihydrolipoyl transacetylase, Lipoamide and Co-enzyme A, transacetylation reaction.

E3: Dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase, FAD and NAD+, oxidation reaction

Explanation:

Pyruvate dehydrogenase is a multi-enzyme complex with 5 co-enzymes and 3 apo-enzymes:

Pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1) , which uses thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) as as co-enzymes to catalyze oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to hydroxyethyl-TPP.

Dihydrolipoyl transacetylase (E2): which uses lipoamide and coenzyme A as co-enzymes to catalyse the transacetylation from TPP to Lipoamide to form acetyl lipoamide.

Dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase (E3) which uses FAD and NAD+ as co-enzymes to catalyze the oxidation of lipoamide
