TPP plays a critical role in the carbohydrate and energy metabolism. It functions as a prosthetic group for the mitochondrial enzyme complexes like pyruvate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and branched chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase. In addition, TPP is involved in the cytosolic pentose pathway functioning as coenzyme for transketolase. |
