Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase activity of pig heart pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1 component of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex).
The pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1) and acetyltransferase (E2) components of pig heart and ox kidney pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex were separated and purified. The E1 component was phosphorylated (alpha-chain) and inactivated by MgATP. Phosphorylation was mainly confined to site 1. Addition of E2 accelerated phosphorylation of all three sites in E1 alpha and inactivation of E1. On the basis ...
متن کاملPyruvate Dehydrogenase Activity in Hamster Small Intestine
Total pyruvate dehydrogenase activities in hamster intestine increase from 40nmol/min (munits) per g of intestine in the foetal animals to 460munits/g in the adult, whereas the fraction ofthe enzyme in the active form increases from 34 to 42% of the total activity over the same period. However, a complete conversion of the enzyme into the active form is observed in the neonatal animal immediate...
متن کاملPyruvate Dehydrogenase Activity in Rat Brain Mitochondria
1. The effects of phenylpyruvate, a metabolite produced in phenylketonuria, on the pyruvate dehydrogenase-complex activity were investigated in rat brain mitochondria. 2. Pyruvate dehydrogenase activity was measured by two methods, one measuring the release of 14CO2 from [1-1"C]pyruvate and the other measuring the acetyl-CoA formed by means of the coupling enzyme, pigeon liver arylamine acetylt...
متن کاملPhenylbutyrate increases activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex
Altered metabolism is an important hallmark of cancer cells and confers them a selective advantage for survival and proliferation. Metabolism in cancer cells is shifted towards glycolysis and decreased dependence on mitochondrial glucose oxidation, a phenomenon known as ‘Warburg effect’ (aerobic glycolysis). Lactate, the end product of glycolysis, is produced in large excess by cancer cells tha...
متن کاملPostischemic hyperoxia reduces hippocampal pyruvate dehydrogenase activity.
The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC) is a mitochondrial matrix enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate and represents the sole bridge between anaerobic and aerobic cerebral energy metabolism. Previous studies demonstrating loss of PDHC enzyme activity and immunoreactivity during reperfusion after cerebral ischemia suggest that oxidative modifications are involved. T...
