The first oxidative decarboxylation in respiration is the conversion of pyruvic acid into acetyl coenzyme A. Moreover it is the first decarboxylation in respiration.
Formation of
is the first decarboxylation in Kreb's cycle. But remember it is not oxidative.
Succinyl Co-A formation is also an oxidative decarboxylation.
# remember that all the oxidative decarboxylations will lead to the production of an NADH2......
