Product Overview
Lactic Dehydrogenase (LDH) has a total molecular weight of 140 kDa and is composed of 4 subunits which are designated M subunit (muscle) and H subunit (heart). These subunits may be mixed in any of 5 combinations (M4, M3H1, M2H2, MH3, and H4). Skeletal muscle contains LDH that is predominately M4 with some small amounts of M3H and traces of H2H2. The H and M subunits are quite similar in molecular weight, but differ substantially in amino acid composition. Rabbit muscle LDH diss ociates into dimeric species (MW = ~70 kDa) in acetate-chloride at pH 5.0, the diss ociation is reversible. Bi ochemistry, 13, 3527-3531 (1974). Oxidizes glyoxylate and lactate.
