Overview
Pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH, EC 1.2.4.1) is widely distributed in animals, plants, microorganisms, and cultured cells. It is the rate-limiting enzyme of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC), catalyzing the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to generate hydroxyethyl-TPP (hydroxyethyl thiamine pyrophosphate), thereby linking glycolysis to the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. This kit is based on the principle that PDH catalyzes the dehydrogenation of pyruvate, concomitantly reducing the electron acceptor 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol (2,6-DCPIP), which results in a decrease in absorbance at 600 nm. By measuring the rate of decrease in absorbance at 600 nm, PDH enzyme activity can be calculated.
