Gene Description

LAT1 (YNL071W; also PDA2/ODP2) encodes the dihydrolipoyllysine-residue acetyltransferase (E2, EC 2.3.1.12) of the mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex. Lat1p carries a covalently bound lipoyl cofactor on its N-terminal lipoyl domain. Its C-terminal catalytic domain transfers the acetyl group from acetyl-dihydrolipoyl-E2 to coenzyme A, forming acetyl-CoA (written in the reverse direction in UniProt). The catalytic domain self-assembles into a 60-mer pentagonal-dodecahedral core. E1 (Pda1p/Pdb1p) binds to this core, and E3 (Lpd1p) binds through the E3-binding protein Pdx1p. The complex sits in the mitochondrial matrix and converts pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and CO2, linking glycolysis to the TCA cycle. LAT1 deletion abolishes the replicative life span extension induced by calorie restriction, and Lat1 overexpression extends life span in a respiration-dependent, Sir2-independent manner.

These findings demonstrate that the active site of E2p from S. cerevisiae resides in the inner core domain, i.e., catalytic domain, and that this domain alone can undergo self-assembly.

Core Functions

E2 acetyltransferase of the PDH complex. Lat1p transfers acetyl groups between its lipoyl arm and coenzyme A to make acetyl-CoA, and forms the 60-mer core scaffold of the complex in the mitochondrial matrix.
