Mammalian pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity is tightly regulated by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, which is catalyzed by PDH kinase isomers and PDH phosphatase isomers, respectively. PDH phosphatase isomer 1 (PDP1) is a heterodimer consisting of a catalytic subunit (PDP1c) and a regulatory subunit (PDP1r). Here, the crystal structure of bovine PDP1c determined at 2.1 Å resolution is reported. The crystals belonged to space group P3 2 21, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 75.3, c = 173.2 Å. The structure was solved by molecular-replacement methods and refined to a final R factor of 21.9% (R free = 24.7%). The final model consists of 402 of a possible 467 amino-acid residues of the PDP1c monomer, two Mn 2+ ions in the active site, an additional Mn 2+ ion coordinated by His410 and His414, two MnSO 4 ion pairs at special positions near the crystallographic twofold symmetry axis and 226 water molecules. Several new features of the PDP1c structure are revealed. The requirements are described and plausible bases are deduced for the interaction of PDP1c with PDP1r and other components of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex.
