Regulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases (PDKs) by allosteric effectors. Among the products and substrates of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC), pyruvate, CoA, and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) suppress PDK activity, while acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) and NADH activate PDKs. ADP produced by the kinase reaction also inhibits PDK activity. TCA cycle, tricarboxylic acid cycle.
