Characterization of point mutations in patients with pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency: role of methionine-181, proline-188, and arginine-349 in the alpha subunit.

Only registered users can translate articles

Human pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), a heterotetramer (alpha2beta2), is the first component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). E1 catalyzes the thiamin pyrophosphate (TPP)-dependent decarboxylation of pyruvate and the reductive acetylation of the dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase component.

Neonatal pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency with lipoate responsive lactic acidaemia and hyperammonaemia.

A 2-day-old girl developed a severe lactic acidosis with a normal lactate/pyruvate ratio and hyperammonaemia. Plasma arginine and citrulline levels were below the limit of detection. In muscle total pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC) and pyruvate decarboxylase (E1) activities were reduced to a

An amino acid substitution in the pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 alpha gene, affecting mitochondrial import of the precursor protein.

Only registered users can translate articles

A mutation in the mitochondrial targeting sequence was characterized in a male patient with X chromosome-linked pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 alpha deficiency. The mutation was a base substitution of G by C at nucleotide 134 in the mitochondrial targeting sequence of the PDHA1 gene, resulting in an
