id: GO:0017086
name: 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate dehydrogenase (lipoamide) complex
namespace: cellular_component
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: A protein complex that catalyzes the reaction 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate + lipoamide = S-(2-methylpropanoyl)-dihydrolipoamide + carbon dioxide (CO2). This requires thiamine diphosphate; the enzyme also acts on (S)-3-methyl-2-oxopentanoate and 4-methyl-2-oxo-pentanoate.
