Pdha2 - pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 alpha 2

Predicted to enable pyruvate dehydrogenase (acetyl-transferring) activity. Predicted to contribute to pyruvate dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity. Predicted to be involved in acetyl-CoA biosynthetic process from pyruvate. Predicted to act upstream of or within mitochondrial acetyl-CoA biosynthetic process from pyruvate. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in nervous system and testis. Orthologous to human PDHA2 (pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 subunit alpha 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
