Comments
Comment typeDescription
FunctionRequired for anchoring dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3) to the dihydrolipoamide transacetylase (E2) core of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complexes of eukaryotes. This specific binding is essential for a functional PDH complex.
MiscellaneousPresent with 414 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}.
SimilarityBelongs to the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase family. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 lipoyl-binding domain. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU01066, ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion matrix.
SubunitEukaryotic pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complexes are organized as a core consisting of the oligomeric dihydrolipoamide acetyl-transferase (E2), around which are arranged multiple copies of pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3) and protein X (E3BP) bound by non-covalent bonds.
