摘要: Two open reading frames, YIL042c (PKP1) and YGL059w, with 25% sequence similarity to human pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases, were shown have protein kinase activity. Using GFP fusions, it was demonstrated that the proteins localize in discrete submitochondrial regions. Strains a null mutation these loci grew poorly on acetate ethanol as carbon sources. Doubling times increased from ca. 4 h wild-type > 6 for mutants. Growth rates of mutants could be restored levels by simultaneous disruption PDA1 gene, encoding E1α subunit complex. This observation activities measured mutant strains grown glucose or suggest slow growth phenotype C2 sources is caused futile cycle which phosphoenolpyruvate converted back acetyl coenzyme A.
