PDP1 polyclonal (Center), anti-human, rat

Background:
Pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1) is one of the three components(E1, E2, and E3) of the large pyruvate dehydrogenase complex.Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases catalyze phosphorylation of serineresidues of E1 to inactivate the E1 component and inhibit thecomplex. Pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatases catalyze thedephosphorylation and activation of the E1 component to reverse theeffects of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases. Pyruvate dehydrogenasephosphatase is a heterodimer consisting of catalytic and regulatorysubunits. Two catalytic subunits have been reported; one ispredominantly expressed in skeletal muscle and another one is ismuch more abundant in the liver. The catalytic subunit, encoded bythis gene, is the former, and belongs to the protein phosphatase 2C(PP2C) superfamily. Along with the pyruvate dehydrogenase complexand pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases, this enzyme is located in themitochondrial matrix. Mutation in this gene causes pyruvatedehydrogenase phosphatase deficiency. Multiple alternativelyspliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have beenidentified.
