Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency : mutational spectrum in Portugal, molecular mechanisms underlying pathogenic variants and potential therapeutic effect of Arginine

Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) occupies an essential position in cellular energy production. The oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to acetyl-coenzyme A is conducted by a highly organized multienzyme system. Impaired PDC activity leads to a metabolic disorder affecting mainly the tissues wi...
