Supplementary information

The target 'PCB' also known as pyruvate carboxylase is a critical enzyme in metabolism. This enzyme has a significant molecular weight of around 130 kDa. It is expressed within the mitochondria of various tissues including liver kidney and adipose tissue. Pyruvate carboxylase catalyzes the carboxylation of pyruvate to form oxaloacetate which is an important step in several metabolic processes especially in gluconeogenesis.
Biological function summary

Pyruvate carboxylase plays a significant role in maintaining metabolic balance. It is a biotin-dependent enzyme and part of a multienzyme complex that facilitates the conversion of pyruvate into oxaloacetate. This conversion is vital for replenishing intermediates in the citric acid cycle supporting the energy supply and anaplerotic reactions necessary for biosynthesis. The activity of pyruvate carboxylase also influences cellular levels of ATP and other nucleotides.

Pathways

The carboxylation of pyruvate by pyruvate carboxylase integrates into gluconeogenesis and lipogenesis. In gluconeogenesis pyruvate carboxylase works alongside phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) to achieve the synthesis of glucose from non-carbohydrate precursors. In lipogenesis oxaloacetate produced by pyruvate carboxylase is important for generating the precursor acetyl-CoA. These pathways involve pyruvate dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase reflecting the interconnectedness of metabolic functions.

Deficiencies or mutations in pyruvate carboxylase can lead to metabolic dysfunctions such as lactic acidosis and Leigh's disease. These conditions affect the body's ability to produce energy efficiently causing neurological and metabolic symptoms. Pyruvate carboxylase interacts closely with enzymes like lactate dehydrogenase and citrate synthase in these disorders highlighting its importance in metabolic homeostasis.

Target data

Pyruvate carboxylase catalyzes a 2-step reaction, involving the ATP-dependent carboxylation of the covalently attached biotin in the first step and the transfer of the carboxyl group to pyruvate in the second. Catalyzes in a tissue specific manner, the initial reactions of glucose (liver, kidney) and lipid (adipose tissue, liver, brain) synthesis from pyruvate.
