Testis-specific lactate dehydrogenase (LDH-C₄) is one of the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) isozymes that catalyze the terminal reaction of pyruvate to lactate in the glycolytic pathway. LDH-C₄ in mammals was previously thought to be expressed only in spermatozoa and testis and not in other tissues. Plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) belongs to the genus Ochotona of the Ochotonidea family. It is a ...

in the present study, changes of values of serum 17ß-estradiol (e2), asparate amino teransferase (ast), alanine amino transferase (alt) and lactate dehydrogenase (ldh) following intraperitoneal (i.p) injection with the aromatase inhibitor (ai) letrozole were investigated in rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss). forty- eight apparently healthy rainbow trout (mean weight of 845 g) divided in four ...

Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is a key enzyme involved in the process of glycolysis, assisting cancer cells to take glucose and generate lactate, as well suppress evade...

This note compares the substrate specificity of D-lactate dehydrogenase (D-LDH, EC 1.1.1.28) to that of L-lactate dehydrogenase (L-LDH, EC 1.1.1.27), illustrates three procedures that use D-LDH in synthesis and two methods for recycling NADH, and provides experimental details illustrating the use of D-LDH in organic synthesis.

Human isoenzyme LDH-X (lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme X) was isolated from seminal fluid of frozen semen samples by affinity chromatography by using oxamate-Sepharose and AMP-Sepharose. In the presence of 1.6 mM-NAD+, isoenzyme LDH-X does not bind to AMP-Sepharose, whereas the other lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes do. This is the crucial point in the isolation of isoenzyme LDH-X from the othe...

Soluble lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) extracted from brain, skeletal and cardiac muscle and liver of rats, and purified isoenzymes LDH-1 and LDH-5, were incubated with sodium deoxycholate. Deoxycholate almost totally inactivated isoenzyme LDH-5 (A4), whereas it left isoenzyme LDH-1 (B4) unaffected. Tissue lactate dehydrogenase was inactivated to different degrees depending on the origin o...

Hydroxyacid dehydrogenases are responsible for the conversion of 2-keto acids to 2-hydroxyacids and have a wide range of biotechnological applications. In this study, a D-lactate dehydrogenase (D-LDH) from a Sporolactobacillus inulinus strain was experimentally verified to have both the D-LDH and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) activities (reversible deamination). The catalytic mechanism was demo...

The five isoenzymes of potato (Solanum tuberasum) lactate dehydrogenase have been resolved by affinity chromatography. Mixtures of isoenzymes LDH-1 and LDH-5 dissociate and reassociate during freezing and thawing to produce five isoenzymes. These results indicate that potato lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes are primary isoenzymes of the vertebrate type, which are composed of two subunit types.
