| UniProt functional annotation for Q5SLR4 | |||
| UniProt code: Q5SLR4. |
| Organism: | Thermus thermophilus (strain ATCC 27634 / DSM 579 / HB8). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Deinococcus-Thermus; Deinococci; Thermales; Thermaceae; Thermus. | |
| Function: | The branched-chain alpha-keto dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the overall conversion of alpha-keto acids to acyl-CoA and CO(2). It contains multiple copies of three enzymatic components: branched-chain alpha-keto acid decarboxylase (E1), lipoamide acyltransferase (E2) and lipoamide dehydrogenase (E3) (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P37940}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate + [dihydrolipoyllysine-residue (2- methylpropanoyl)transferase]-(R)-N(6)-lipoyl-L-lysine + H(+) = [dihydrolipoyllysine-residue (2-methylpropanoyl)transferase]-(R)- N(6)-(S(8)-2-methylpropanoyldihydrolipoyl)-L-lysine + CO2; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:13457, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10488, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10489, ChEBI:CHEBI:11851, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:16526, ChEBI:CHEBI:83099, ChEBI:CHEBI:83142; EC=1.2.4.4; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:15033367}; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=thiamine diphosphate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:58937; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:15033367}; | |
| Subunit: | Heterotetramer of two alpha and two beta chains. Directly associated with ODBB in the E1 complex. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15033367}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the BCKDHA family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
