physiological function | the activity of PDC is regulated by different isozymes of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase PDK in different tissues. Isoform PDK1 is the principal isozyme regulating hepatic PDC. PDK2 is largely responsible for inactivation of PDC in tissues of muscle origin and brown adipose tissue (BAT). PDK3 is the principal kinase regulating pyruvate dehydrogenase activity in kidney and brain. In a well-fed state, the tissue levels of PDK4 protein are fairly low. In most tissues tested, PDK4 ablation has little effect on the overall rates of inactivation of PDC in kinase reaction | Mus musculus |
