dlat-1

Caenorhabditis elegans

Predicted to enable dihydrolipoyllysine-residue acetyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in acetyl-CoA biosynthetic process from pyruvate. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial matrix. Predicted to be part of mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Expressed in several structures, including head and tail. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pyruvate decarboxylase deficiency. Is an ortholog of human DLAT (dihydrolipoamide S-acetyltransferase).
