Product Description

PDK4(Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4) is a member of the PDK/BCKDK protein kinase family and encodes a mitochondrial protein with a histidine kinase domain. PDK4 plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism by regulating the activity of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) through phosphorylation of its E1α subunit. This regulation is vital as PDK4 determines the balance between carbohydrate and fatty acid oxidation, particularly during metabolic stress such as starvation or diabetes. PDK4 is predominantly expressed in heart and skeletal muscle, where PDK4 levels fluctuate in response to nutritional status; for instance, PDK4 levels increase during starvation, leading to reduced PDC activity and a shift towards fatty acid utilization for energy.
