basic FUNCTION
| 2-oxoglutarate lipoamide 2 oxidoreductase (decarboxylating and acceptor-succinylating) |
|
alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, E1k subunit |
|
fourth step of citric acid cycle |
|
first and rate-limiting component of the multienzyme OGDH complex (OGDHC) whose malfunction is associated with neurodegeneration  |
|
enzyme participating in mitochondrial degradation of glutamate  |
|
is an important control point in vertebrate mitochondrial oxidative metabolism, including in the citrate cycle and catabolism of alternative fuels including glutamine  |
|
OGDH serves as a positive regulator of gastric cancer (GC) progression through enhancement of mitochondrial function and activation of WNT/CTNNB1 signaling  |
|
OGDH and OGDHL play an essential part in a rate-limiting enzymatic reaction for the conversion of alpha-ketoglutarate (alpha-KG) to succinyl-CoA  |
|
both OGDHL and OGDH are required for mitochondrial metabolism in human neurons  |
