Anti-ODPAT

catalytic activity:Pyruvate + [dihydrolipoyllysine-residue acetyltransferase] lipoyllysine = [dihydrolipoyllysine-residue acetyltransferase] S-acetyldihydrolipoyllysine + CO(2).,cofactor:Thiamine pyrophosphate.,enzyme regulation:E1 activity is regulated by phosphorylation (inactivation) and dephosphorylation (activation) of the alpha subunit.,function:The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the overall conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and CO(2). It contains multiple copies of three enzymatic components: pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (E2) and lipoamide dehydrogenase (E3).,subunit:Tetramer of 2 alpha and 2 beta subunits.,tissue specificity:Testis. Expressed in postmeiotic spermatogenic cells., Protein function: The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the overall conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and CO(2), and thereby links the glycolytic pathway to the tricarboxylic cycle. [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:500-2000 ELISA 1:5000-20000. Cellular localization: Mitochondrion matrix.
