Target Details for PDK2

Target: PDK2 (Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase, Isozyme 2 (PDK2))

Alternative Name: PDK2

Background:

Synonyms: [Pyruvate dehydrogenase (acetyl-transferring)] kinase isozyme 2, mitochondrial,2.7.11.2,Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase isoform 2,PDH kinase 2,PDKII,PDK2,PDHK2,

Tissue Specificity: Expressed in many tissues, with the highest level in heart and skeletal muscle, intermediate levels in brain, kidney, pancreas and liver, and low levels in placenta and lung. .

Background: PDK2 (Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase Isoenzyme 2), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PDK2 gene. This gene encodes a member of the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase family. The encoded protein phosphorylates pyruvate dehydrogenase, down-regulating the activity of the mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Overexpression of this gene may play a role in both cancer and diabetes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the PDK/BCKDK protein kinase family.

Molecular Weight: 85-91 kDa
