Popis: | Human skin fibroblasts deficient in pyruvate dehydrogenase and five normal control strains were incubated with one of the following labelled substrates: DL-[1-14C]-2-amino-n-butyric acid, DL-[3-14C]-2-amino-n-butyric acid, L-[1-14C]leucine, L-[1-14C]valine, L-[1-14C]alanine, and [1-14C]pyruvate. The rate of 14CO2-production in the deficient cells was normal from 2-aminobutyrate and leucine, increased from valine, and decreased from alanine and pyruvate. These results indicated that in human skin fibroblasts the decarboxylation of 2-oxobutyrate is catalysed by an enzyme system different from the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. |
