During kerbs cycle pyruvate is converted to Acetyl CoA. The so formed Acetyl CoA then enters the krebs cycle.
Explanation:
Pyruvate is the end product of glycolysis. Pyruvate is converted into Acetyl CoA by the catalytic activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme which uses NAD + as a coenzyme.
The formation of pyruvate to Acetyl CoA is termed as oxidative decarboxylation.
