Subsequent collapse of the tetrahedral hemithioacetal ejects thiazole, releasing the TPP cofactor and generating a thioacetate on S1 of lipoate. Recessive genetic disorders occur when an individual inherits two copies of an abnormal gene for the same trait, one from each parent. Daily treatment with biotin is an effective treatment. Brain energy is essential for the production of the protective sheath around some nerve cells (myelin) and the production of neurotransmitters in the brain. PC deficiency type C is characterized by normal or mildly delayed development and normal life expectancy. By a combination of batch and chemostat experiments it is demonstrated that even in complex media, Pdc − S. cerevisiae does not exhibit prolonged growth on glucose. In eukaryotes E1 is specifically bound by E2, while E3 associates with E3BP. Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency (PDCD) is a rare disorder of carbohydrate metabolism caused by a deficiency of one of the three enzymes in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). Pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) is the highly regulated E 1 component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex responsible for the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl coenzyme A (CoA), thereby linking glycolysis to the tricarboxylic acid cycle. It is characterized by the degeneration of the central nervous system (i.e., brain, spinal cord, and optic nerve). Through an endosymbiotic event, pyruvate dehydrogenase found in the eukaryotic mitochondria points to ancestral linkages dating back to Gram-positive bacteria. NORD is not a medical provider or health care facility and thus can neither diagnose any disease or disorder nor endorse or recommend any specific medical treatments. Some affected individuals have rarer forms of the disorder that follow autosomal recessive inheritance. A diet that is low in fat and high in carbohydrates and protein is recommended. Levels of ammonia, pyruvate, lactate, acetoacetate and beta-hydroxybutyrate in the blood are high. Triheptanoin has reportedly reversed hepatic failure and biochemical abnormalities in one case by presumably providing an anaplerotic source of acetyl-CoA and propionyl-CoA. Similarities of the quaternary structures between pyruvate dehydrogenase and enzymes in Gram-positive bacteria point to a shared evolutionary history which is distinctive from the evolutionary history of corresponding enzymes found in Gram-negative bacteria. Pyruvate decarboxylation is also known as the "pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction" because it also involves the oxidation of pyruvate.[2]. Type A occurs more often in native tribes of North America and type B occurs more often in Europe, especially in France, but also in Germany and England. The symptoms of Leigh syndrome usually begin between the ages of three months and two years. This complex acts as a catalyst and causes decarboxylation of pyruvates because of which the synthesis of CO2, NADH, and acetyl-CoA takes place. During starvation, PDK increases in amount in most tissues, including skeletal muscle, via increased gene transcription. subunit gene (PDHA1) in patients with a pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency", 10.1002/(sici)1098-1004(200003)15:3<209::aid-humu1>3.0.co;2-k, "Mutations of the E1β subunit gene (PDHB) in four families with pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency", "Clinical and genetic spectrum of pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency: Dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (E2) deficiency", "Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency: updating the clinical, metabolic and mutational landscapes", "Mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase 1 regulates the early differentiation of cardiomyocytes from mouse embryonic stem cells", https://web.archive.org/web/20070405211049/http://www.dentistry.leeds.ac.uk/biochem/MBWeb/mb1/part2/krebs.htm#animat1, "The remarkable structural and functional organization of the eukaryotic pyruvate dehydrogenase complexes", "Structures of the Human Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex Cores: A Highly Conserved Catalytic Center with Flexible N-Terminal Domains", Photosynthetic reaction center complex proteins, Branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex, Phosphoenolpyruvate sugar phosphotransferase system, Mitochondrial permeability transition pore, Complex III/Coenzyme Q - cytochrome c reductase, Electron-transferring-flavoprotein dehydrogenase, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pyruvate_dehydrogenase_complex&oldid=1010984555, Articles with unsourced statements from September 2020, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License, This page was last edited on 8 March 2021, at 11:38. In pyruvate decarboxylase-negatve mutants, a pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is the only link that blycolysis and tricarboxylic acid can run. Symptoms are associated with progressive neurological deterioration and may include loss of previously acquired motor skills, loss of appetite, vomiting, irritability, and/or seizure activity. The pyruvate decarboxylase (E1) component of the PDH complex fails to bind thiamine pyrophosphate at low concentration, but shows significant activity at a high concentration of the coenzyme. Alternative sources say "transport of pyruvate across the outer mitochondrial membrane appears to be easily accomplished via large non-selective channels such as voltage-dependent anion channels, which enable passive diffusion" and transport across inner mitochondrial membrane is mediated by mitochondrial pyruvate carrier 1 (MPC1) and mitochondrial pyruvate carrier 2 (MPC2).[13]. Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex(PDC) PDC is a large multienzyme composed of: Pyruvate dehydrogenase or Pyruvate decarboxylase (E1), Dihydrolipoyl transacetylase (E 2), Dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase (E 3) The enzyme also consists of 5 coenzymes. Cryo-electron microscopy has established that E3BP binds to each of the icosahedral faces in yeast. The PDH complex is composed of three enzymes: PDC (E 1), dihydrolipoamide transacetylase (E 2), and dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E 3). Intravenous fluids, hydration and correction of the metabolic acidosis can aid in individual flare-ups for disease management. Updated: Aug 09, 2016. https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/125014-overview Accessed Jan 13, 2020. The gram-positive bacteria and cyanobacteria that would later give rise to mitochondria and chloroplast found in eukaryotic cells retained the E1 subunits that are genetically related to those found in the BCOADH enzymes. Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) is a complex of three enzymes that converts pyruvate into acetyl-CoA by a process called pyruvate decarboxylation. The E1-catalyzed process is the rate-limiting step of the whole pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Passive diffusion of pyruvate into the mitochondria is impossible because it is a polar molecule. Copyright ©2021 NORD - National Organization for Rare Disorders, Inc. All rights reserved. [14] Pyruvate dehydrogenase complexes share many similarities with branched chain 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase (BCOADH), particularly in their substrate specificity for alpha-keto acids. Individuals may print one hard copy of an individual disease for personal use, provided that content is unmodified and includes NORD’s copyright. The oxaloacetate decarboxylase primary Na (+) pump (OAD) is an essential membrane protein complex that functions in the citrate fermentation pathway of some pathogenic bacteria under anaerobic conditions. Stoops, J.K., Cheng, R.H., Yazdi, M.A., Maeng, C.Y., Schroeter, J.P., Klueppelberg, U., Kolodziej, S.J., Baker, T.S., Reed, L.J. In prokaryotes, which have no mitochondria, this reaction is either carried out in the cytosol, or not at all. Pyruvate dehydrogenase is inhibited when one or more of the three following ratios are increased: ATP/ADP, NADH/NAD+ and acetyl-CoA/CoA. [20] Likewise, mutations found on other subunits of the complex, like the DLAT gene found on the E2 subunit, the PDHX gene found on the E3 subunit, as well as a mutation on a pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase gene, known as PDP1, have all been traced back to pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency, while their specific contribution to the disease state is unknown. In contrast, the mitochondrial enzymes, pyruvate dehydrogenase and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complexes, were inhibited by oxythiamine during the entire experiment. This includes the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, which catalyzes the overall conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and CO(2). Carrier testing and prenatal diagnosis may be possible by molecular genetic testing if the specific PC gene mutations have been identified in an affected family member. The carbon dioxide produced by this reaction is nonpolar and small, and can diffuse out of the mitochondria and out of the cell. Finally, the C-terminal (catalytic) domain catalyzes the transfer of acetyl groups and acetyl-CoA synthesis. Decreased functional E1 alpha prevents pyruvate dehydrogenase from sufficiently binding to pyruvate, thus reducing the activity of the overall complex. Then, a NAD+ cofactor oxidizes FADH2 back to its FAD resting state, producing NADH. Upon entry to the mitochondria, the pyruvate is decarboxylated, producing acetyl-CoA. Symptoms of the following disorders can be similar to those of pyruvate carboxylase deficiency. Pyruvate Decarboxylase. Thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), Lipoic acid (LA), Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), Coenzyme A (CoA), and In Gram-negative bacteria, e.g. This can cause calcium ions to decay over time. Thiamine, lipoic acid, dichloroacetate, aspartic acid, and citrate can sometimes help to reduce the levels of pyruvate and lactate. National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD) 55 Kenosia Ave., Danbury CT 06810 • (203)744-0100. Introduction. Pyruvate translocase transports pyruvate in a symport fashion with a proton, and hence is active, consuming energy. Biotin can sometimes improve the function of the pyruvate carboxylase enzyme. ), Biotinidase deficiency is a treatable, metabolic disorder that is the result of a low concentration or absence of the biotinidase enzyme. PC deficiency type B (severe neonatal form) usually begins at or shortly after birth. PC deficiency is inherited as an autosomal recessive genetic condition. Mutant strains defective in the complex require an exogenous source of acetate to meet this requirement, but anaerobically such mutants grow without exogenous acetate because under such conditions, pyruvate formate lyase generates acetyl-CoA from pyruvate. Lipoamide dehydrogenase is a component of the alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase complexes. This enzymatic deficiency allowed a demonstration of an "intercomplex" exchange of the components of the mammalian pyruvate dehydrogenase system and indicated that the first component is normally present in an apparent excess.

GeneReviews® [Internet]. In: Adam MP, Ardinger HH, Pagon RA, et al., editors. Most affected infants show a widespread red skin rash (eczema), seizures, and hypotonia. The peripheral subunit binding domain (PBSD), serves as a selective binding site for other domains of the E1 and E3 subunits. Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is a very large multienzyme which consists of Pyruvate dehydrogenase or Pyruvate decarboxylase (E1), dihydrolipoyl transacetylase (E2), and dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase (E3). The transport of pyruvate into the mitochondria is via the transport protein pyruvate translocase. Since the E1 subunits have a distinctive specificity for particular substrates, the E1 subunits of pyruvate dehydrogenase and BCOADH vary but share genetic similarities. 266150; Last Updated10/29/2018. [citation needed]. The age of onset and severity of disease depends on the activity level of the PDC enzymes. These three compounds were then tested on three ThDP-dependent pyruvate decarboxylases: the Escherichia coli pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex (PDHc) and its E1 (ThDP-dependent) component, pyruvate oxidase (POX, phosphorylating; from Lactobacillus plantarum),and pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) from Saccharomycescerevisiae. Up to 60 E1 or E3 molecules can associate with the E2 core from Gram-positive bacteria - binding is mutually exclusive. Children with this type of PC deficiency usually die in infancy or early childhood, but some survive to adulthood. If an individual inherits one normal gene and one gene for the disease, the person will be a carrier for the disease but usually will not show symptoms. Calcium ions have a role in regulation of PDC in muscle tissue, because it activates PDP, stimulating glycolysis on its release into the cytosol - during muscle contraction. PC deficiency is a very rare disorder that affects males and females in equal numbers. This enzyme functions in the energy producing centers of cells (mitochondria) to make oxaloacetate. It is important in metabolism as it is the linking step between glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. [6][7], An auxiliary protein unique to most eukaryotes is the E3 binding protein (E3BP), which serves to bind the E3 subunit to the PDC complex. Wang D, De Vivo D. Pyruvate Carboxylase Deficiency. Mutant strains lacking pyruvate formate lyase have the reverse phenotype. Pyruvate decarboxylation is also known as the "pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction" because it also involves the oxidation of pyruvate. The N-terminal domain (the lipoyl domain), consists of 1-3 lipoyl groups of approximately 80 amino acids each.

[17] Such PCDC mutations, leading to subsequent deficiencies in NAD and FAD production, hinder oxidative phosphorylation processes that are key in aerobic respiration. The resulting hemithioacetal undergoes decarboxylation to produce an acyl anion equivalent (see cyanohydrin or aldehyde-dithiane umpolung chemistry, as well as benzoin condensation). On entry to the mitochondria the pyruvate decarboxylation occurs, producing acetyl CoA. This irreversible reaction traps the acetyl-CoA within the mitochondria (the acetyl-CoA can only be transported out of the mitochondrial matrix under conditions of high oxaloacetate via the citrate shuttle, a TCA intermediate that is normally sparse). Specifically, BCOADH catalyzes the degradation of amino acids and these enzymes would have been prevalent during the periods on prehistoric earth dominated by rich amino acid environments. The information in NORD’s Rare Disease Database is for educational purposes only and is not intended to replace the advice of a physician or other qualified medical professional. Leigh syndrome is a rare genetic neurometabolic disorder. Comparison may be useful for a differential diagnosis. This irreversible reaction traps the acetyl CoA within the mitochondria (there is n… The complex consists of 3 enzymes; lipoamide reductase-transacetylase; dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase; pyruvate decarboxylase PC deficiency is suspected in individuals with failure to thrive, developmental delay, recurrent seizures, and metabolic acidosis. Pyruvate Carboxylase Deficiency.Medscape. Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex is a multi enzyme complex which catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and CO 2. The reaction catalysed by pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is: The E1 subunit, called the pyruvate dehydrogenase subunit, has a structure that consists of two chains (an “ɑ” and “ꞵ” chain). Pyruvate-decarboxylase (Pdc)-negative Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been reported to grow in batch cultures on glucose-containing complex media, but not on defined glucose-containing media. [15][16], Pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency (PCDC) can result from mutations in any of the enzymes or cofactors. Those who develop PDCD later in childhood may have intellectual disability and other neurological symptoms and usually survive into adulthood. The PDH complex is composed of three enzymes: PDC (E 1), dihydrolipoamide transacetylase (E 2), and dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E 3). One example of E3 structure, found in Pseudomonas putida, is formed such that each individual homodimer subunit contains two binding domains responsible for FAD binding and NAD binding, as well as a central domain and an interface domain. In 1966 Zurich, Wittorf, and Gubler (8) reported that the pyruvate decarboxylase isolated from brewer’s yeast had a 1 The abbreviation used is: thiamine-PP, thiamine pyrophos- phate. The risk to have a child who is a carrier like the parents is 50% with each pregnancy. Despite similarities of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex with gram-positive bacteria, there is little resemblance with those of gram-negative bacteria. In contrast, in Gram-positive bacteria (e.g. Oxidation of pyruvate decarboxylase can happen with two routes. McKusick VA, ed. Molecular genetic testing for PC gene mutations is available to confirm the diagnosis. All studies receiving U.S. government funding, and some supported by private industry, are posted on this government web site. PDHC : The pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex (PDHC) catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA, a critical step in the production of cellular energy. [1] Acetyl-CoA may then be used in the citric acid cycle to carry out cellular respiration, and this complex links the glycolysis metabolic pathway to the citric acid cycle. The PDC is a multi-enzyme complex that plays a vital role as a key regulatory step in the central pathways of energy metabolism in the mitochondria. The resulting inhibition of PDC prevents muscle and other tissues from catabolizing glucose and gluconeogenesis precursors. It contains 563 residue subunits in each dimer; the enzyme has strong intermonomer attractions, but the dimers loosely interact to form a loose tetramer. PubMed is a searchable database of medical literature and lists journal articles that discuss Pyruvate decarboxylase deficiency. The E2 subunit from pyruvate dehydrogenase evolved from the E2 gene found in BCOADH while both enzymes contain identical E3 subunits due to the presence of only one E3 gene. E2 can also be known as lipoamide reductase-transacetylase. Several different genetically determined enzyme defects can cause the syndrome. In most people, Leigh syndrome is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. (For more information about this disorder, choose “biotinidase” as your search term in the Rare Disease Database.). PC deficiency is caused by changes (mutations) in the pyruvate carboxylase (PC) gene resulting in a missing or decreased amount of pyruvate carboxylase enzyme. PDCD is a genetic disease resulting from mutations in one of the components of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. [11] However, it has been suggested that it replaces an equivalent number of E2 molecules in the bovine PDC core. Under the same conditions, the amount of PDP decreases. The dihydrolipoate, still bound to a lysine residue of the complex, then migrates to the dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase (E3) active site,[1] where it undergoes a flavin-mediated oxidation, identical in chemistry to disulfide isomerase. Pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) is the highly regulated E 1 component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex responsible for the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl coenzyme A (CoA), thereby linking glycolysis to the tricarboxylic acid cycle. The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) 3 catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate with the formation of acetyl-CoA, CO 2 and NADH (H +) (1,–3). The risk is the same for males and females. an enzyme of the lyase class that takes part in the anaerobic decomposition of carbohydrates in the cells of certain microorganisms, for example, brewer’s yeast, and in the tissues of higher plants. Parents who are close relatives (consanguineous) have a higher chance than unrelated parents to both carry the same abnormal gene, which increases the risk to have children with a recessive genetic disorder. The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex Pyruvate decarboxylase Pyruvate carboxylase Transport of pyruvate into the factory Major routes of pyruvate metabolism: mitochondrion Gene disruptions Disruption of genes encoding subunits of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex Disruption of structural genes encoding Disruption of structural genes encoding pyruvate decarboxylase pyruvate carboxylase … Individuals with PDCD beginning prenatally or postnatally in early infancy usually die in early childhood. Substrates in turn inhibit PDK, reactivating PDC. When deficient, the PC enzyme activity is usually less than 5% of normal activity. The chance for a child to inherit normal genes from both parents is 25%. Here we report the crystallographic image of a prereaction intermediate of a bacterial pyruvate decarboxylase prepared by cocrystallizing the enzyme with pyruvate and a stable analogue of the cofactor’s activated ylid form. Please note that NORD provides this information for the benefit of the rare disease community. In eukaryotic cells the pyruvate decarboxylation occurs inside the mitochondria, after transport of the substrate, pyruvate, from the cytosol. (For more information about this disorder, choose “Leigh” as your search term in the Rare Disease Database. The risk for two carrier parents to both pass the altered gene and have an affected child is 25% with each pregnancy. As Leigh syndrome progresses, symptoms may also include generalized weakness, hypotonia, and episodes of lactic acidosis, which may lead to impairment of respiratory and kidney function. This anion attacks S1 of an oxidized lipoate species that is attached to a lysine residue. First, the E1 subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase contains four different subunits: two alpha subunits designated as E1-alpha and two beta subunits designated as E1-beta. However, X-linked recessive and mitochondrial inheritance have also been described. [5], The E3 subunit, called the dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase enzyme, is characterized as a homodimer protein wherein two cysteine residues, engaged in disulfide bonding, and the FAD cofactor in the active site facilitate its main purpose as an oxidizing catalyst. The age of onset and severity of disease depends on the activity level of the PDC enzymes. Initially, pyruvate and thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP or vitamin B1) are bound by pyruvate dehydrogenase subunits. [1] The thiazolium ring of TPP is in a zwitterionic form, and the anionic C2 carbon performs a nucleophilic attack on the C2 (ketone) carbonyl of pyruvate. Click on the link to view a sample search on this topic. ternary complex is determined by the equilibrium constants -for the bmding of thiamine-PP and Mg* to apoenzyme indicated by Equation 2. Function and Reaction Mechanism The function of pyruvate decarboxylase is two-fold: 1) the conversion of pyruvate to hydroxyethyl-TPP with the elimination of a carbon dioxide molecule, and 2) to transfer the hydroxyethyl group attatched to TPP to the lipoamide from the E2 component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, dihydrolipoyl transacetylase. Thus, acetyl-CoA is instead reduced via anaerobic mechanisms into other molecules like lactate, leading to an excess of bodily lactate and associated neurological pathologies. NORD strives to open new assistance programs as funding allows. J. Biol. Growth in batch cultures on complex and defined media with ethanol was not impaired in Pdc- strains. Lactic acidosis is mild and intermittent. Biotinidase deficiency is inherited as an autosomal recessive genetic condition. The PDC occupies a key position in the oxidation of glucose by linking the glycolytic pathway to the oxidative pathway of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Pyruvate decarboxylase occurs as a dimer of dimers with two active sites shared between the monomers of each dimer. Eukaryotes also contain 12 copies of an additional core protein, E3 binding protein (E3BP) which bind the E3 subunits to the E2 core. Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency (PDCD) is a rare disorder of carbohydrate metabolism caused by a deficiency of one of the three enzymes in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). 2009 Jun 2 [Updated 2018 Mar 1]. First, FAD oxidizes dihydrolipoate back to its lipoate resting state, producing FADH2. It was found that pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme found in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells closely resembles an enzyme from B. stearothermophilus which is a Gram-positive bacteria. The frequency of this condition has been estimated to be 1 in 250,000 births. Crucian carp and goldfish duplicated their genome so they have additional copies of the enzyme complex called pyruvate dehydrogenase, of which decarboxylase is … In a ring-opening SN2-like mechanism, S2 is displaced as a sulfide or sulfhydryl moiety. Escherichia coli, PDC consists of a central cubic core made up from 24 molecules of dihydrolipoyl transacetylase (E2). Products of the reaction act as allosteric inhibitors of the PDC, because they activate PDK. Testing can be performed on samples of skin cells to determine if the pyruvate carboxylase enzyme activity is abnormally low. Frye RE, Benke PJ.

Triheptanoin also may show promise in reversing neurological manifestations but further studies are essential to address this suggestion. Chem. Bacillus stearothermophilus) and eukaryotes the central PDC core contains 60 E2 molecules arranged into an icosahedron. Some individuals have a thiamine responsive form of this disorder. 1392 Pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency is a rare neurodegenerative disorders associated with abnormal mitochondrial metabolism. Life expectancy was not prolonged in this single reported case. Children with this type of pyruvate carboxylase deficiency usually die within the first three months of life, but two longer-term survivors have been described. Some products of these transcriptions release H2 into the muscles. [3][4], The E2 subunit, or dihydrolipoyl acetyltransferase, for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, is generally composed of three domains. The enzyme complex is now ready for another catalytic cycle. It is thought that up to 30 E1 and 6 E3 enzymes are present, although the exact number of molecules can vary in vivo and often reflects the metabolic requirements of the tissue in question. This E2 subunit “core” coordinates to 30 subunits of E1 and 12 copies of E3. Up to 24 copies of pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1) and 12 molecules of dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase (E3) bind to the outside of the E2 core.[9]. In its most severe form, PC deficiency leads to progressive damage to the tissue and organs, especially in the nervous system. Pyruvate decarboxylase catalyzes the nonoxidative decarboxylation of pyruvic acid, resulting in the formation of acetaldehyde: Three types of PC deficiency have been described and are called type A, type B and type C. PC deficiency type A (infantile form) begins in infancy and symptoms include developmental delay, intellectual disability, mixed acid-base disturbance with mild to moderate elevations in lactic acid and ketone bodies in the blood (lactic acidosis/ketoacidosis), abdominal pain, vomiting, tiredness and muscle weakness.
