Function
Together with BCKDHB forms the heterotetrameric E1 subunit of the mitochondrial branched-chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase (BCKD) complex. The BCKD complex catalyzes the multi-step oxidative decarboxylation of alpha-ketoacids derived from the branched-chain amino-acids valine, leucine and isoleucine producing CO2 and acyl-CoA which is subsequently utilized to produce energy. The E1 subunit catalyzes the first step with the decarboxylation of the alpha-ketoacid forming an enzyme-product intermediate. A reductive acylation mediated by the lipoylamide cofactor of E2 extracts the acyl group from the E1 active site for the next step of the reaction
