Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Homo sapiens Pdk2 transcription decreases upon addition of nutlin-3a, nutlin-3a can produce off-target effects, upon reduction of p53, the effect of nutlin-3a upon Pdk2 protein decreases. A histone deacetylase inhibitor, trichostatin A, partially prevents repression of Pdk2 transcription by p53 down
Mus musculus the amount of Pdk2 mRNA in both colon and spleen decreases upon irradiation of wild-type mice but not upon irradiation of p53 knockout mice, p53 decreases Pdk2 transcription in vivo down
Homo sapiens cotransfection with plasmids expressing either E2F1 or E2F2 activates Pdk2/luciferase transcription. E2F1 binds less well to the Pdk2 promoter when p53 is induced with zinc up

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism p53 negatively regulates transcription of the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase Pdk2, which negatively regulates the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Decreased levels of Pdk2 and P-Pdc in turn promote conversion of pyruvate into acetyl-CoA instead of lactate Mus musculus

physiological function Pdk2 is seen as the key control point in conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA reaction because it responds allosterically to rapid local changes in substrate and product: Pdk2-specific activity increases if acetyl-CoA and NADH levels increase, but decreases if pyruvate levels increase Mus musculus

P53-dependent apoptosis requires downregulation of Pdk2, early apoptotic events do not occur unless p53 can downregulate the transcription of Pdk2 Homo sapiens
