“…The structure of E2 is consistent with these two properties, comprising a compact inner core domain containing the catalytic and subunitbinding sites, and one or more extended outer domains containing the lipoic acid moiety. Stretches of flexible polypeptide rich in alanine and proline residues link the different domains and contain trypsin-sensitive sites where E2 can be cleaved into separate functional domains [14,15].…”

“…Similarly, since the incorporation of [14C]acetyl groups into partly El-inhibited pyruvate dehydrogenase complexes from E coli and ox heart did not increase significantly when the incubation time was lengthened from lOs to 45s, it is unlikely that intra-core migration of El subunits is contributing much to our measurements of active-site coupling. The most likely explanations remain those of some form of intramolecular transacetylation reaction (Bates et al, 1977;Collins & Reed, 1977) and the effects of the remarkable polypeptide-chain mobility discovered in the E2 cores Wawrzynczak et al, 1981;Berman et al, 1981;Stepp et al, 1981;Duckworth et al, 1982). Raising the temperature has already been demonstrated to increase the mobility of the lipoic acid residues of the E. coli pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, as measured by e.s.r.…”

“…spectroscopy of the E. coli complex Packman et al, 1982). Similar regions of polypeptide chain with high conformational mobility appear to exist in 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes from all sources thus far examined (Wawrzynczak et al, 1981;Duckworth et al, 1982). They presumably underlie the mechanism of active-site coupling and obviate the need for exact stoicheiometric arrangement of active sites in the 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes Berman et al, 1981;Stepp et al, 1981;Duckworth et al, 1982).…”
