Description

DHTKD1 encodes the E1 component of the 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (OGDHC), a mitochondrial enzyme complex that catalyzes the decarboxylation of 2-oxoglutarate to succinyl-CoA in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. The gene is also involved in lysine degradation. Mutations in DHTKD1 are associated with alpha-aminoadipic aciduria and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2Q.

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense and frameshift mutations reduce or abolish enzyme activity, leading to metabolic disorders.

Gain of Function (GOF)

Not reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Missense mutations may exert dominant-negative effects in the OGDHC complex.

Protein Summary

DHTKD1 encodes the E1 subunit of the 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex, a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 2-oxoglutarate to succinyl-CoA. The protein contains a thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) binding domain and is essential for energy metabolism and amino acid catabolism.
