Facts about Dihydrolipoyllysine-residue succinyltransferase component of 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex, mitochondrial.
The 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex is mainly active in the mitochondrion (PubMed:29211711). A fraction of this 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex also localizes in the nucleus and is necessary for lysine succinylation of histones: partners with KAT2A on chromatin and supplies succinyl-CoA to histone succinyltransferase KAT2A (PubMed:29211711).
