Abstract excerpt
Variants of the Escherichia coli 1-lip pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex (1-lip PDHc) with the C259N and C259S substitutions in the putative thiamin diphosphate-(ThDP-) binding motif of the pyruvate dehydrogenase component (E1, EC 1.2.4.1) were characterized. Single substitutions were made at the five remaining cysteines of the E1 component, creating the C120A, C575A, C610A, C654A, and C770S variants to...
