Phosphorylation of branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex in isolated hepatocytes. 1987

S M Jones, and A T Sim, and D G Hardie, and S J Yeaman

Hepatocytes, isolated from rats fed a low-protein diet, were incubated with [32P]Pi and the phosphoproteins analysed. Immunoprecipitation using antibody against El of branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex demonstrated phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit of El. Analysis of the tryptic phosphopeptides from the alpha-subunit indicated that two sites were phosphorylated. 4-methyl 2-oxopentanoate and DL-2-chloro 4-methylpentanoate decreased labelling of both sites. No major direct effects of several hormones on phosphorylation of branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase was observed.
