What enzyme works on Pyruvate to make Acetyl CoA

Pyruvate dehydrogenase
How does pyruvate become Acetyl-CoA?

If the cell has oxygen then it becomes oxidized, CO2 is removed, NAD picks up a hydrogen, and CoA gets attached
Acetyl-CoA:what enzyme works on this? what's the product?

citrate synthase...citrate
citrate: what enzyme works on this? what's the product?

aconitase...isocitrate
isocitrate: what enzyme works on this? what's the product?

IDH... alpha-Ketoglutarate
alpha-ketoglutarate: what enzyme works on this? what's the product?

alpha-KGDH...succinyl-CoA
succinyl-CoA: what enzyme works on this? what's the product?

succinyl-CoA syntase...succinate
succinate: what enzyme works on this? what's the product?

succinate dehydrogenase...fumarate
fumarate: what enzyme works on this? what's the product?

fumarase...L-Malate
L-Malate: what enzyme works on this? what's the product?

MDH...Oxaloactetate (OAA)
OAA: what happens to this molecule to start Krebs over?

Citrate synthase binds the OAA and Acetyl-CoA together to for citrate synthase.
