  • Title: Immunochemical comparison of lipoamide dehydrogenases from various sources and reactivity of various lipoamide dehydrogenases with rat heart pyruvate dehydrogenase-subcomplex.
    Author: Matuda S, Saheki T.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1985 Jun 14; 129(2):479-84. PubMed ID: 3893428.
    Abstract:
    Lipoamide dehydrogenases from various sources were purified and their immunochemical properties were compared. Antibody against rat lipoamide dehydrogenase reacted with rat, human, pig, pigeon and frog enzymes, but not with enzymes from E. coli, yeast and Ascaris. Anti-Ascaris enzyme and anti-E. coli enzyme antibodies reacted with Ascaris and E. coli enzymes, respectively. The pyruvate dehydrogenase subcomplex, which consists of pyruvate dehydrogenase and lipoate acetyltransferase, was prepared by releasing the lipoamide dehydrogenase from rat heart pyruvate dehydrogenase complex by anti-lipoamide dehydrogenase antibody. Lipoamide dehydrogenases from various sources were added to rat pyruvate dehydrogenase subcomplex and the complex overall activity was measured. Each lipoamide dehydrogenase effectively recovered the overall activity of rat pyruvate dehydrogenase subcomplex to 80% of the original activity.
