Antibodies are purified by peptide affinity chromatography.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nThe pyruvate dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate and CoA into acetyl-CoA and CO in the presence of NAD . Acetyl-CoA then goes into the citric acid cycle where it reacts with oxaloacetate to form citrate. The reaction of oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate serves as a critical link between glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. In mammalian cells, the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is located in the mitochondrial matrix (1). This complex is composed of three enzymes: pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (E2), and dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3). Pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1) consists of two subunits: α and β. This enzyme catalyzes the removal of CO from pyruvate. Mutations in the α subunits of pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1) lead to congenital defects that are usually associated with lactic acidosis, neurodegeneration, and early death (2).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nODPA; PDHA; PDHA1; PDHAD; PDHCE1A; PDHE1-A type I; PHE1A; pyruvate dehydrogenase (lipoamide) alpha 1; pyruvate dehydrogenase alpha 1; pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, E1-alpha polypeptide 1; pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 alpha 1; pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 alpha 1 subunit; Pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 component subunit alpha, somatic form, mitochondrial; pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 subunit alpha 1\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 43\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46798016413865,"sku":"2784S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-2784s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
