Lipoamide is a coenzyme prosthetic group for several enzymes,
including the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. In the pyruvate
dehydrogenase reaction the prosthetic group cycles through three
distinct structural forms: the oxidized form, the reduced form, and
the reduced form with an acetyl group bound. Modify the three
partial structures below to represent these three structural forms.
R–NH represents a lysine amino residue of the dihydrolipoyl
transacetylase subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase, to which the
lipoamide is attached.
