Gene Information

human ... PDHA1(5160)

General description

PDHA1 codes for the α1 subunit of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and modulates the activity of the complex. PDHA1 mutations have been implicated in pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency.
Rabbit Anti-PDHA1 antibody recognizes bovine, chicken, pig, human, mouse, rat, and canine PDHA1.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human PDHA1

Application

Rabbit Anti-PDHA1 antibody is suitable for western blot applications at a concentration of 5μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial matrix multienzyme complex that provides the primary link between glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle by catalyzing the irreversible conversion of pyruvate into acetyl-CoA. The PDH complex is composed of multiple copies of 3 enzymes: E1 (PDHA1); dihydrolipoyl transacetylase (DLAT); and dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase (DLD). The E1 enzyme is a heterotetramer of 2 alpha and 2 beta subunits. The E1-alpha subunit contains the E1 active site and plays a key role in the function of the PDH complex.The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial matrix multienzyme complex that provides the primary link between glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle by catalyzing the irreversible conversion of pyruvate into acetyl-CoA. The PDH complex is composed of multiple copies of 3 enzymes: E1 (PDHA1); dihydrolipoyl transacetylase (DLAT; MIM 608770) (E2; EC 2.3.1.12); and dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase (DLD; MIM 238331) (E3; EC 1.8.1.4). The E1 enzyme is a heterotetramer of 2 alpha and 2 beta subunits. The E1-alpha subunit contains the E1 active site and plays a key role in the function of the PDH complex (Brown et al., 1994 [PubMed 7853374]).[supplied by OMIM].

The pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex is a mitochondrial multienzyme that catalyses the irreversible oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA. We report four novel PDHA1 mutations in patients with pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency. Analysis of PDH activity showed decreased activity in fibroblasts
