Contains thiamine diphosphate. It is a component (in multiple copies) of the multienzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, EC 1.2.1.104, in which it is bound to a core of molecules of EC 2.3.1.12, dihydrolipoyllysine-residue acetyltransferase, which also binds multiple copies of EC 1.8.1.4, dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase. It does not act on free lipoamide or lipoyllysine, but only on the lipoyllysine residue in EC 2.3.1.12.

treatment of cardiac fibroblasts with 35 mM D-glucose for 72 h reduces the PDH activity remarkably. 0.2 mM thiamine dramatically recovers the high glucose-induced PDH inhibition
with aging of rats the Vmax of the enzyme complex increases by 60%, while the Km decreases by 1.6fold in the same time, enzyme expression level remaines constant, more efficient catabolization of pyruvate due to adaptive phosphorylation of the enzyme within the multienzyme complex, age-related decline in pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase PDK-4
the enzyme, as pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex component E1alpha, becomes reversibly phosphorylated at 3 serine residues by specific pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases PDK1-4, and dephosphorylated by a specific pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase PDP-1 and to a lesser extant PDP-2, regulatory function, pyruvate oxidation is inhibited in phosphorylated state of E1alpha
phosphorylation of the PDH E1alpha subunit by PDH kinase contributes to the suppression of PDH activity. Streptozotocin treatment causes a significant increase in the level of the phosphorylated PDH E1alpha subunit in the diabetic rat hearts
the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase is reduced in diabetic rats. Thiamine ameliorates diabetes-induced PDH inhibition by suppressing the increased expression of the O-glycosylated protein
