If derived from glycolysis, this may entail a loss of Krebs cycle intermediates and problems in Coenzyme A recycling . Within the mitochondrial Krebs cycle, two enzyme complexes, the pyruvate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex are able to reincorporate coenzyme A into acetylCoA and Succinyl-CoA respectively. DLST forms a part of the alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex which is enriched in cholinergic neurones in the brain (Calingasan et al. 1994) suggesting that it is central to the energetic problems of cholinergic neurones. | |

Two herpes simplex proteins, glycoproteins E and L (US8, UL1) form a decoy heterodimeric Fc receptor. This is expressed on the surface of virions and infected cells and binds to host immunoglobulin G. IgG is released from this receptor by the acidic conditions present in lysosomes and this receptor may thus promote the degradation of antiviral antibodies bound to IgG. It has also been suggested that the entrapment of antiviral antigens by this viral Fc receptor may divert their binding to host Fc receptors Sprague et al, 2006 (eg FCER1G). |
