Function

function

A peripheral cell membrane enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to form acetate and CO2. It channels electrons from the cytoplasm to the respiratory chain at the cell membrane via ubiquinone.

Caution

Lacks conserved residue(s) required for the propagation of feature annotation.
The sequence shown here is derived from an EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ whole genome shotgun (WGS) entry which is preliminary data.

Catalytic activity

Cofactor

Protein has several cofactor binding sites:
FAD (UniProtKB | Rhea| CHEBI:57692 )

Note: Binds 1 FAD per subunit.
Mg2+ (UniProtKB | Rhea| CHEBI:18420 )

Note: Binds 1 Mg2+ ion per subunit.
thiamine diphosphate (UniProtKB | Rhea| CHEBI:58937 )

Note: Binds 1 thiamine pyrophosphate per subunit.

Activity regulation

The C-terminus inhibits activity; it has to move for the enzyme to be active. Activated by lipid-binding, which occurs via the C-terminus.

Domain4-115Thiamine pyrophosphate enzyme N-terminal TPP-binding
Region183-334FAD-binding domain
Domain192-319Thiamine pyrophosphate enzyme central
Domain380-526Thiamine pyrophosphate enzyme TPP-binding
Region532-573Membrane-binding domain

Domain

Has 4 domains; the Pyr domain which binds the pyrimidine moiety of the thiamine pyrophosphate cofactor, the FAD-binding domain, the PP-binding domain which binds the pyrophosphate portion of thiamine pyrophosphate and the C-terminal membrane binding region. The C-terminus is held closely against the rest of the protein and covers the active site; during activation it unfolds from the rest of the protein and forms an amphipathic helix upon membrane binding, exposing the active site.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the TPP enzyme family.
