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 serine residues of E1 to inactivate the E1 component and inhibit the complex. Pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatases catalyze the dephosphorylation and activation of the E1 component to reverse the effects of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases. Pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase is a heterodimer consisting of catalytic and regulatory subunits. Two catalytic subunits have been reported; one is predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle and another one is is much more abundant in the liver. The catalytic subunit, encoded by this gene, is the former, and belongs to the protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) superfamily. Along with the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases, this enzy
Function
catalytic activity:[Pyruvate dehydrogenase (acetyl-transferring)] phosphate + H(2)O = [pyruvate dehydrogenase (acetyl-transferring)] + phosphate.,cofactor:Binds 2 magnesium ions per subunit.,disease:Defects in PDP1 are the cause of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase deficiency (PDP deficiency) [MIM:608782]. PDP deficiency results in lactic acidosis leading to neurological dysfunction.,function:Catalyzes the dephosphorylation and concomitant reactivation of the alpha subunit of the E1 component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex.,similarity:Belongs to the PP2C family.,subunit:Heterodimer of a catalytic (PDP1) and a regulatory (PDPR) subunit.,
