Sound effects honestly help a lot

This video is outstanding, and makes the process look so much more interesting than it is often presented as in textbooks!

Thanks so much. My textbook made it look like that NADH was reduced first before acetyl binded to COA. But your animation said that 2 electrons and 2 protons were held by pyruvate dehydrogenase and eventually it reduced NAD+ to NADH after acetyl-coa left which made it easier to understand.

Glad it helped!

fantastic

Interesante. Favor publicar traducido al español para difundir entre estudiantes. Gracias

Puedes usar la opción de "traducir automáticamente" en la configuración, yo así le hice para proyectárselo a mis estudiantes.

So what is Pyruvate?
