Polyol dehydrogenases. 3. Galactitol dehydrogenase and D-iditol dehydrogenase.

A histochemical study of lactic dehydrogenase in Paget cells.

By the use of a modified incubating medium, lactic dehydrogenase in Paget cells was histochemically examined. The addition of phenazine methosulfate to the substrate solution decreased the reaction intensity of lactic dehydrogenase in Paget cells. In the presence of potassium cyanide, however, phenazine methosulfate caused increased reaction. When urea was introduced into the substrate solution...

Lactic dehydrogenase activity in human epidermis: semiquantitative histochemical study.

SASAI, Y. Lactic Dehydrogenase Activity in Human Epidermis: Semiquantita tive Histochemical Study. Tohoku J. exp. Med ., 1972, 108 (4), 327-336 The graphical method of Lineweaver-Burk to the histoehemical system was applied to obtain quantitative information on the lactic dehydrogenase activity in human epidermis. In vitro experiment showed that the incubation time necessary for yielding a cert...

Glycerol dehydrogenase. structure, specificity, and mechanism of a family III polyol dehydrogenase.

BACKGROUND Bacillus stearothermophilus glycerol dehydrogenase (GlyDH) (glycerol:NAD(+) 2-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.6) catalyzes the oxidation of glycerol to dihydroxyacetone (1,3-dihydroxypropanone) with concomitant reduction of NAD(+) to NADH. Analysis of the sequence of this enzyme indicates that it is a member of the so-called iron-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family. Despite this sequenc...
