An immunochemical enzyme immunoassay model system was developed and compared for maximum sensitivity with a radioimmunoassay method and the classic enzyme activity method for the detection of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHc) and its decarboxylating subunit, pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), isolated from Escherichia coli. Cross-linked large molecular weight antibody-enzyme conjugate systems are compared with heterobifunctional singular antibody conjugates substituted with high levels of horseradish peroxidase. Both polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies generated to the Escherichia coli PDHc and E1 antigens were used to develop a double-antibody sandwich microtiter plate enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. It is demonstrated that a double sandwich immunochemical assay system can be quantitative for PDHc, can detect PDHc in crude cell lysates and has levels of sensitivity of 2.0.10(-16) mol for the detection of PDHc. This assay model system provides specific antibody selection criteria and coupling methods needed to select specific antisera that cross-react with human PDHc. This rapid and sensitive immunochemical assay method clearly demonstrates that sensitive mass assay systems can be developed for the detection of PDHc. Different from Western blot, this methodology could be used to generate mass assays which could be applied to the rapid detection of mammalian antigens (employing the corresponding antibodies) implicated in a number of pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiencies associated with human disorders.

D011768 Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex A multienzyme complex responsible for the formation of ACETYL COENZYME A from pyruvate. The enzyme components are PYRUVATE DEHYDROGENASE (LIPOAMIDE); dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase; and LIPOAMIDE DEHYDROGENASE. Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is subject to three types of control: inhibited by acetyl-CoA and NADH; influenced by the energy state of the cell; and inhibited when a specific serine residue in the pyruvate decarboxylase is phosphorylated by ATP. PYRUVATE DEHYDROGENASE (LIPOAMIDE)-PHOSPHATASE catalyzes reactivation of the complex.

D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation. Radioimmunoassays
D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
