Abstract excerpt
Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDHK), a negative regulator of the mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex (mtPDC), plays a pivotal role in controlling mtPDC activity, and hence, the TCA cycle and cell respiration. This report describes the cloning of a pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase cDNA (AtPDHK) from Arabidopsis thaliana and focuses on the effects of antisense down-regulation of its expression on plant...
