Product overview
The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex performs the decarboxylation of pyruvate into acetyl CoA, a critical function in metabolism, linking glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria. The enzyme is composed of multiple copies of three enzymes: pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), dihydrolipoamide transacetylase (E2) and dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3). The E1 enzyme is a tetramer of two alpha (PDHA1) and two beta (PDHB) subunits.
Abcam ab133988 PDH Rodent Immunocapture Kit is suitable to immunocapture PDH complex from rodent tissue homogenates and whole cells lysates. Traditional immunoprecipitation methods usually result in co-elution of the antibody heavy and light chains that may co-migrate with relevant bands, masking important results. The Abcam PDH immunocapture Kit resolves this issue by immobilize the PDH capture antibody onto protein G-agarose beads. The kit includes optimized buffers and reagents for sample preparation and PDH binding and recovery, which shorten the protocol and minimize handling and mixing.

For all lanes: 10 µL antibody coated beads was mixed with 1 mg rodent sample and incubated for 3 hours. Captured PDH complex was eluted with SDS elution buffer and half volume of the eluted PDH complex was loaded on the gel. Gel was stained with Colloidal Coomassie Blue.
