Abstract excerpt
The E1 decarboxylase component of the human branched-chain ketoacid dehydrogenase complex comprises two E1alpha (45.5 kDa) and two E1beta (37.5 kDa) subunits forming an alpha2 beta2 tetramer. In patients with type IA maple syrup urine disease, the E1alpha subunit is affected, resulting in the loss of E1 and branched-chain ketoacid dehydrogenase catalytic activities. To study the effect of human E1alpha missense...
