Comment typeDescription
Catalytic Activity2-methylpropanoyl-CoA + enzyme N(6)- (dihydrolipoyl)lysine = CoA + enzyme N(6)-(S-(2- methylpropanoyl)dihydrolipoyl)lysine.
CofactorName=(R)-lipoate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:83088; Evidence={ECO:0000250}; Note=Binds 1 lipoyl cofactor covalently. {ECO:0000250};
FunctionThe branched-chain alpha-keto dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the overall conversion of alpha-keto acids to acyl-CoA and CO(2). It contains multiple copies of three enzymatic components: branched-chain alpha-keto acid decarboxylase (E1), lipoamide acyltransferase (E2) and lipoamide dehydrogenase (E3). Within this complex, the catalytic function of this enzyme is to accept, and to transfer to coenzyme A, acyl groups that are generated by the branched-chain alpha-keto acid decarboxylase component (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
SimilarityBelongs to the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase family. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 E3-binding domain. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 lipoyl-binding domain. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU01066, ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion matrix {ECO:0000250}.
