UniProt functional annotation for P09624

UniProt code: P09624.

Organism: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c) (Baker's yeast).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Saccharomycotina; Saccharomycetes; Saccharomycetales; Saccharomycetaceae; Saccharomyces.
 
Function: Lipoamide dehydrogenase is a component of the alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase complexes. This includes the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, which catalyzes the overall conversion of pyruvate to acetyl- CoA and CO(2). Acts also as component of the glycine cleavage system (glycine decarboxylase complex), which catalyzes the degradation of glycine.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=(R)-N(6)-dihydrolipoyl-L-lysyl-[protein] + NAD(+) = (R)-N(6)- lipoyl-L-lysyl-[protein] + H(+) + NADH; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:15045, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10474, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10475, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:57540, ChEBI:CHEBI:57945, ChEBI:CHEBI:83099, ChEBI:CHEBI:83100; EC=1.8.1.4;
Cofactor: Name=FAD; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:57692; Evidence={ECO:0000250}; Note=Binds 1 FAD per subunit. {ECO:0000250};
Subunit: LPD1 is a homodimer. Eukaryotic pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complexes are organized as a core consisting of the oligomeric dihydrolipoamide acetyl-transferase (E2), around which are arranged multiple copies of pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3) and protein X (E3BP) bound by non-covalent bonds. LPD1 is a component of the glycine decarboxylase complex (GDC), which is composed of four proteins: P, T, L and H. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7498764, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9538259, ECO:0000269|Ref.9}.
Subcellular location: Mitochondrion matrix.
Miscellaneous: The active site is a redox-active disulfide bond.
Miscellaneous: Present with 24600 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}.
Similarity: Belongs to the class-I pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase family. {ECO:0000305}.
