The relationships between transketolase, yeast pyruvate decarboxylase and pyruvate dehydrogenase of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1993
The amino acid sequences of four thiamine pyrophosphate‐requiring enzymes were aligned with the published amino acid sequence of the transketolase of Hansenula polymorpha. Sequences of the combined α and β subunits of the E1 enzyme of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complexes of Homo sapiens and Bacillus stearothermophilus aligned well with the ...

Ketogenic diet in pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency: short- and long-term outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2017
ObjectivesOur aime was to study the short- and long-term effects of ketogenic diet on the disease course and disease-related outcomes in patients with pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency, the metabolic factors implicated in treatment outcomes, and ...

Compartmentalized activities of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex sustain lipogenesis in prostate cancer

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2017
The mechanisms by which mitochondrial metabolism supports cancer anabolism remain unclear. Here, we found that genetic and pharmacological inactivation of pyruvate dehydrogenase A1 (PDHA1), a subunit of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC), inhibits ...

A novel null mutation in the pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase catalytic subunit gene (PDP1) causing pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency

open access: yesJIMD Reports, 2019
Congenital lactic acidosis due to pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDP) deficiency is very rare. PDP regulates pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) and defective PDP leads to PDC deficiency.

Enhancement of acetyl-CoA flux for photosynthetic chemical production by pyruvate dehydrogenase complex overexpression in Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942.

open access: yesMetabolic Engineering, 2019
Genetic manipulation in cyanobacteria enables the direct production of valuable chemicals from carbon dioxide. However, there are still very few reports of the production of highly effective photosynthetic chemicals. Several synthetic metabolic pathways (

Resveratrol reverses the Warburg effect by targeting the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex in colon cancer cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Resveratrol (RES), a polyphenol found in natural foods, displays anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative properties potentially beneficial in cancers, in particular in the prevention of tumor growth.

Regulating mitochondrial metabolism by targeting pyruvate dehydrogenase with dichloroacetate, a metabolic messenger.

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2023
Dichloroacetate (DCA) is a naturally occurring xenobiotic that has been used as an investigational drug for over 50 years. Originally found to lower blood glucose levels and alter fat metabolism in diabetic rats, this small molecule was found to serve ...

Pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency: morphological and metabolic effects, creation of animal model to search for curative treatment

open access: yesFolia Morphologica, 2020
The main source of energy for brain and other organs is glucose. To obtain energy for all tissue, glucose has to come through glycolysis; then as pyruvate it is converted to acetyl-CoA by pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) and finally enters citric ...

The Metabolic Fates of Pyruvate in Normal and Neoplastic Cells

open access: yesCells, 2021
Pyruvate occupies a central metabolic node by virtue of its position at the crossroads of glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and its production and fate being governed by numerous cell-intrinsic and extrinsic factors.
