Abstract excerpt
We have amplified the cDNA for the transacylase (E2) subunit of the branched-chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase (BCKAD) complex from a thiamine-responsive MSUD cell line (WG-34) by the polymerase chain reaction. Sequencing of the amplified WG-34 cDNA showed a 17-bp insertion (AAATACCTTGTTACCAG) a...
