Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase 1/PDK1 Proteins and Enzymes

Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase isoform 1 (PDK1) is a component of the mitochondrial multienzyme complex (PHD) which is responsible for carbohydrate fuel regulation. PDK1 inhbits the mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase complex by phosphorylation of the E1 alpha subunit, thus contributing to the regulation of glucose metabolism.

PDK1 antibodies are useful tools for glucose metabolism research and mitochondrial metabolism studies.
