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

Which of the following is a characteristic of the tidal region of an ocean
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
The defining characteristic of the intertidal zone is that it is submerged with water during high tide and exposed to the air during low tide. The zone can take many forms, from sandy beaches to rocky cliffs. It is common for the intertidal zone to change frequently, since it is constantly battered by crashing waves.
