Molecular cloning of cDNA for rat liver lipoate acetyltransferase. A component of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. 1987

S Matuda, and S Matuo, and K Nakano, and T Saheki

One cDNA clone for lipoate acetyltransferase, a component enzyme of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, was isolated from a rat liver cDNA library prepared in the phage expression vector lambda gt11 using immunological screening with affinity purified anti-lipoate acetyltransferase antibody. It was identified tha cDNA insert in this clone codes for lipoate acetyltransferase by immunoblotting of lysogen carrying the isolated clone. Lipoate acetyltransferase antigenic polypeptide in fusion protein was about 11,000 daltons, agreeing with the size of cDNA insert to be 300 base pairs.

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.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004274 DNA, Recombinant Biologically active DNA which has been formed by the in vitro joining of segments of DNA from different sources. It includes the recombination joint or edge of a heteroduplex region where two recombining DNA molecules are connected.
