당 대사에 관여하는 Pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDP)는 해당과정에서의 대사 산물인 pyruvate 를 acetyl CoA로 만들어 구연산 회로로 진입시켜주는 효소인 Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex(PDP)의 활성을 조절하는 중요한 효소이다. PDP의 catalytic subunit는 PDP의 dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase(E2), PDP regulatory subunit (PDPr), 그리고 칼슘 결합 도메인 등으로 구성되어 있는 것으로 추측되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 PDP 단백질을 분리정제하고 결정화 하고자하였다. PDP는 catalytic subunit(PDPc, Mr 52,600 Da)과, regulatory subunit (PDPr, 95,600 Da)으로 구성되어 있으며 칼슘 존재하에 PDPc는 dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase(E2) component와 결합하여 기질인 인산 E1 component의 탈인산화율을 증가시킨다. PDPc는 intrinsic 칼슘 결합부위를 가지며 두 번째 칼슘 부위는 E2 존재 하에 형성된다. 이러한 특이한 상호반응을 이용한 GSH-Sepharose-GST-L2 matrix를 이용하여 약 1000 U/mg의 specific activity를 갖는 순수 PDPc를 약 80%의 yield로 얻어 결정화에 사용하였다.

Pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDP)와 kinase는 당대사시 해당과정에서의 대사 산물인 pyruvate를 acetyl CoA로 만들어 구연산 회로로 진입시켜 주는 효소인 pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC)의 활성을 조절하는 중요한 효소이다. PDP의 catalytic subunit는 PDC의 dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (E2), PDP regulatory subunit (PDPr), 그리고 칼슘 결합 도메인 등으로 구성되어 있는 것으로 추측되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 그 구조와 기능과의 상관관계를 알아보기 위해 PDPc를 E. coli JM101에서 발현시켜 순수 정제 후 단백분해 효소를 이용한 제한적 가수분해 방법을 이용해 그 구조와 기능과의 상관관계에 대해 연구하고자 하였다 정제된 PDPc는 trypsin, chymotrypsin, Arg-C 그리고 elastase를 이용하여 3$0^{\circ}C$ 그리고 pH 7.0에서 제한적으로 분해시켰으며 각 분해산물의 아미노 말단의 아미노산 배열을 분석하였다. 그 결과 PDPc는 trypsin, chymotrypsin, elastase에 의해 N-terminal의 50 kD과 C-terminal의 10 kD의 두개의 분해산물을 만들었으며, Arg-C에 의해 50kD의 분해산물은 약 35kD와 15kD으로 더 가수분해가 되었다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때 PDPc는 앞에서 추측한데로 세개의 주요한 기능적 도메인으로 이루어져 있음을 알 수 있었다 또한 C-terminal의 10kD은 PDPc의 활성에는 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 밝혀졌으나 다른 도메인의 기능은 더 연구가 되어져야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDP) is a mitochondrial protein serine/threonine phosphatase that catalyzes the dephosphorylation and concomitant reactivation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase componant of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). PDP consists of a Mg$\^$+2/ -dependent and Ca$\^$+2)-stimulated catalytic subunit (PDPc) of Mr 52,600 and a FAD-containing regulatory subunit (PDPr) of Mr 95.600. Catalytic subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDPc) has been suggested to have three major functional domains such as dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase(E$_2$)-binding domain, regulatory subunit of PDP(PDPr)-binding domain, and calcium-binding domain. In order to identify functional domains, recombinant catalytic subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (rPDPc) was expressed in E. coli JM101 and purified to near homogeneity using the unique property of PDPc: PDPm binds to the inner lipoyl domain (L$_2$) of E$_2$ of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) in the presence of Ca$\^$+2/, not under EGTA. PDPc was limited-proteolysed by trypsin, chymotrypsin, Arg-C, and elastase at pH7.0 and 30$^{\circ}C$ and N-terminal analysis of the fragment was done. Chymotrypsin, trypsin, and elastase made two major framents: N-terminal large fragment, approx. 50kD and C-terminal small fragment, approx. 0 kDa. Arg-C made three major fragments: N-terminal fragment, approx. 35 kD, and central fragment, approx. 15 kD, and C-terminal fragment, approx. 10 kD. This study strongly suggest that PDPc consists of three major functional domains. However, further study should be necessary to identify the functional role.

Catalytic subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDPc) has been suggested to have three major funational domains such as dihydrplipoamide adetyltransferase(E2)-binding domain, regulatory subunit of PDP(PDP)r-binding domain, and calcium-binding domain. In order to identify functional domains, recombinant catalytic subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase(rPDPc) was expressed in E. coli JM101 and purified to near homogeneity using the unique property of PDPc: PDPc binds to the inner lipoyl domain (L2) of E2 of ppyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) in the presence of Ca+2, not under EGTA. PDPc was limited-proteolysed by typsin, chymotypsin, Arg-C, and elastase at pH 7.0 and 30C and N-terminal analysis of the fragments was done. Chymotrypsin, trypsin, and elastase made two major fragments: N-terminal large fragment, approx. 50kD and C-terminal small fragment, approx.10 kDa. Arg-C made three major fragments: N-terminal fragment, approx. 35kD, and central fragment, approx. 15 kD, and C-terminal fragment, approx. 10 kD. This study strongly suggest that PDPc consists of three major functional domains. However, further study should be necessary to identify the functional role.

The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC), a member of $\alpha$-keto acid dehydrogenase complex, catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate with the formation of $CO_2$, acetyl-CoA, NADH, and $H^+$. This complex contains multiple copies of three catalytic components including pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (E2), and dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3). Two regulatory components (E1-kinase and phospho-E1 phosphatase) and functionally less-understood protein (protein X, E3BP) are also involved in the formation of the complex. In this study, we have partially cloned the gene for E3BP in human. Nine putative clones were isolated by human genomic library screening with 1.35 kb fragment of E3BP cDNA as a probe. For investigation of cloned genes, Southern blot analysis and the construction of the restriction map were performed. One of the isolated clones, E3BP741, has a 3 kb-SacI fragment, which contains 200 bp region matched with E3BP cDNA sequences. The matched DNA sequence encodes the carboxyl-terminal portion of lipoyl-bearing domain and hinge region of human E3BP. Differences between yeast E3BP and mammalian E3BP coupled with the remarkable similarity between mammalian E2 and mammalian E3BP were confirmed from the comparison of the nucleotide sequence and the deduced amino acid sequence in the cloned E3BP. Cloning of human E3BP gene and analysis of the gene structure will facilitate the understanding of the role(s) of E3BP in mammalian PDC.

Two regulatory components (E1-kinase and phospho-E1 phosphatase) and functionally less-understood protein (protein X, E3BP) are also involved in the formation of the complex. In this study, cloning and characterization of a gene for human E3BP have been carried out. A cDNA encoding the human E3BP was isolated by database search and cDNA library screening. The primary structure of E3BP has some similar characteristics with that of E2 in the lipoyl domain and the carboxyl-terminal domain, based on the nucleotide sequence and the deduced amino acid sequence. However, the conserved amino acid moiety including the histidine residue for acetyltransferase activity in E2 is not conserved in the case of human E3BP. The human E3BP was expressed and purified in E. coli. The molecular weight of the protein, excluding the mitochondrial target sequence, was about 50 kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE. Cloning of human E3BP and expression of the recombinant E3BP will facilitate the understanding of the role(s) of E3BP in mammalian PDC.

본 연구는 지구성 트레이닝과 thiamine(thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide: TTFD)의 투여가 골격근 내 글리코겐과 PDH(Pyruvate dehydrogenase), 그리고 PDH 활성에 관여하는 효소의 단백질인 PDK4(Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4)와 PDP1(PDH phosphatase 1)의 발현에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 6주령의 ICR 마우스를 대상으로 비운동집단(Sedentary; CON, TH), 운동집단(Exercise; EX, THEX)으로 나누어 4주간의 지구성 트레이닝과 체중 kg 당 50 mg의 thiamine을 경구투여 하였다. 4주간의 지구성 트레이닝은 간과 근육 내 glycogen의 저장량에 유의한 증가가 나타났지만 thiamine 투여에 따르는 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 마찬가지로 골격근 내 PDH와 PDH 조절에 관련한 PDK4, PDP1의 단백질 발현을 측정한 결과 4주간의 지구성 트레이닝에 따르는 효과는 관찰되었지만, thiamine 투여에 집단간 유의한 효과는 나타나지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 장기간 지구성 트레이닝에 따른 골격근의 적응으로 인하여 thiamine 투여에 따른 시너지 효과가 나타나지 않은 것으로 보인다. 따라서 추후 연구에서는 지구성 트레이닝의 기간을 고려한 thiamine의 섭취 타이밍 그리고 탄수화물의 복합투여에 따른 PDH와 관련 단백질의 분석이 필요할 것으로 보인다.

DJ-1 is one of the causative genes of early-onset familial Parkinson's disease (PD). As a result, DJ-1 influences the pathogenesis of sporadic PD. DJ-1 has various physiological functions that converge to control the levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Based on genetic analyses that sought to investigate novel antioxidant DJ-1 downstream genes, pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) kinase (PDK) was demonstrated to increase survival rates and decrease dopaminergic (DA) neuron loss in DJ-1 mutant flies under oxidative stress. PDK phosphorylates and inhibits the PDH complex (PDC), subsequently downregulating glucose metabolism in the mitochondria, which is a major source of intracellular ROS. A loss-of-function mutation in PDK was not found to have a significant effect on fly development and reproduction, but severely ameliorated oxidative stress resistance. Thus, PDK plays a critical role in the protection against oxidative stress. Loss of PDH phosphatase (PDP), which dephosphorylates and activates PDH, was also shown to protect DJ-1 mutants from oxidative stress, ultimately supporting our findings. Further genetic analyses suggested that DJ-1 controls PDK expression through hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1), a transcriptional regulator of the adaptive response to hypoxia and oxidative stress. Furthermore, CPI-613, an inhibitor of PDH, protected DJ-1 null flies from oxidative stress, suggesting that the genetic and pharmacological inhibition of PDH may be a novel treatment strategy for PD associated with DJ-1 dysfunction.

Mammalian pyruvate dehydrogenase complex(PDC) enzyme consists of multiple oopies of three major oligomeric enzymes-El, E2 E3. And protein X is one of the enzymatic constituents which is tightly bound to E2 subunit This complex enzyme is responsible for the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate producing of acetyl CoA which is a key intermediate for the entry of carbohydrates into the TCA cycle for its complete metabolic conversion to CO$_2$. And the overall activity of the complex enzyme is regulated via covalent nodification of El subunit by a El specific phosphatase ad kinase. Protein X has lipoyl moiety that undergoes reduction and acetylation during ezymatic reaction and has been known h be involved in the binding of E3 subunit to E2 core and in the regulatory activity of kinase. The purification of protein X has not been achieved majorly because of its tight binding to E2 subunit The E2-protein X subcomplex was obtained by the established methods and the detachment of protein X from E2 was accomplished in the 0.1M borate buffer containing 150mM NaCl. During the storage of the subcomplex in frozen state at -70$^{\circ}C$, the E2 subunit was precipitated and the dissociated protein X was obtained by cntrifegation into the supernatant The verification of protein X was accomplished by (1)the migration on SDS-PAGE, (2)acetylation by 〔2$\^$-l4/C〕 pyruvate, and (3)internal amino acid sequence analysis of tryptic digested enzyme.
