Enzyme Information

1.2.4.4
3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate dehydrogenase (2-methylpropanoyl-transferring).
based on mapping to UniProt P21953
3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate + [dihydrolipoyllysine-residue (2-methylpropanoyl)transferase] lipoyllysine = [dihydrolipoyllysine- residue (2-methylpropanoyl)transferase] S-(2-methylpropanoyl)dihydrolipoyllysine + CO(2).
-!- It acts not only on 3-methyl-2-oxobutanaoate, but also on 4-methyl-2- oxopentanoate and (S)-3-methyl-2-oxopentanoate, so that it acts on the 2-oxo acids that derive from the action of transaminases on valine, leucine and isoleucine. -!- It is a component of the multienzyme 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate dehydrogenase complex in which multiple copies of it are bound to a core of molecules of EC 2.3.1.168, which also binds multiple copies of EC 1.8.1.4. -!- It does not act on free lipoamide or lipoyllysine, but only on the lipoyllysine residue in EC 2.3.1.168. -!- Formerly EC 1.2.4.3.
