?-ketogluterate dehydrogenase and pyruvate dehydrogenase catalyze similar reactions using the same reaction mechanisms. E1 and E2 of the two enzyme complexes share a lot of similarities, however they are not identical. The E3 enzyme of the two enzyme complexes are identical. Keeping the functions of each of the three enzymes in mind, explain why it makes sense that the E1/E2 enzymes are only similar, whereas the E3 enzymes are identical.

Acetyl coA is made from pyruvate in the ["mitochondrial matrix" or "cytoplasm"] by ["pyruvate dehydrogenase" or "succinate dehydrogenase"] complex. In this process, the acetyl group is moved between enzymes within the complex by the ["lipoamide" or "TPP"]. The ["dihydrolipoyl transacetylase" or "pyruvate dehydrogenase component"] is the enzyme in which acetyl coA is actually formed. The ["FADH2" or "lipoamide"] in the dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase donates two electrons to NADH, which then goes on to the electron transport chain.
