Pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate into acetyl-CoA while producing NADH and releasing CO2, linking glycolysis to the citric acid cycle. Pyruvate carboxylase (PC) converts pyruvate into oxaloacetate, which is important for gluconeogenesis and replenishing citric acid cycle intermediates.
