Nuclear magnetic resonance approaches in the study of 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes--a literature review.

ABSTRACT: The 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase complexes (ODHc) consist of multiple copies of three enzyme components: E1, a 2-oxoacid decarboxylase; E2, dihydrolipoyl acyl-transferase; and E3, dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase, that together catalyze the oxidative decarboxylation of 2-oxoacids, in the presence of thiamin diphosphate (ThDP), coenzyme A (CoA), Mg²⁺ and NAD⁺, to generate CO₂, NADH and the corresponding acyl-CoA. The structural scaffold of the complex is provided by E2, with E1 and E3 bound around the periphery. The three principal members of the family are pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDHc), 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (OGDHc) and branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase (BCKDHc). In this review, we report application of NMR-based approaches to both mechanistic and structural issues concerning these comp
