what is the enzyme that convert lactic acid to pyruvic acid so as to get to krebs cycle in body metabolism

Question

plesae if possible give me some referances...?

Answer 1

well lactate ( lactic acid) gets converted to pyruvate by th enzyme lactate dehydrogenase. This is part of the Cori Cycle.

but.. from glucose metabolism you know that 1glucose molecule can form 2 molecules of pyruvic acid. In oxygen I beleive it gets converted to acetyl co enzyme A which rolls you into the Krebs cycle
