We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

Lactate Dehydrogenase(LDH) is a large, two domain- protein which catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate to lactate under anaerobic conditions. This conversion is coupled with the reduction of NAD+ to form the electron carrying NADH. Muscular LDH is involved in the Cori Cycle where it transports newly synthesized lactate to the liver. Liver LDH converts the lactate back to pyruvate in order to provide the precursor for gluconeogenesis.

Lactate dehydrogenase is found in its various isoenzyme forms throughout the body, including: brain, red blood cells, lungs, kidney, placenta, pancreas, muscle, and liver. It is kept at relatively low concentrations and is only utilized as a pathway under anaerobic conditions as it produces less ATP/glucose than oxidative phosphorylation. High levels of LDH are generally indicative of poor health. LDH translation is found to be overly expressed in pancreatic cancer and showed correlation with cell growth success rate. <ref>DOI 10.1126/science.1160809</ref>

Increased LDH levels are also associated with conditions such as Rhabdomyolysis which is characterized by the breakdown of skeletal muscle. This is due in part to LDH in red blood cells being released through hemolysis.

Lactate dehydrogenase is a tetramer protein which can form five different isoenzymes. Subunits exist primarily in two isoforms: M and H, which differ in a single residue. The M subunit contains an alanine while the H subunit contains a glutamine. The combination of subunits defines which isoenzyme is formed and indicates where the enzyme will be present in the body. Lactate dehydrogenase A is composed of four M subunits. The subunits can adopt two conformations, open and closed, which determine the subunits activity.

The substrate binding pocket relies on heavily on hydrogen binding and ionic interactions in order to effectively bind the substrate. Upon binding, the substrate binding pocket undergoes a conformational change where interactions between the substrate or inhibitor and a glutamine residue (Q99) essentially pull the active loop closed.

The nicotinamide and adenine binding pockets work together to successfully bind NADH. Both binding pockets implement hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions with their ligand fragment. In addition to the interactions within the binding pockets, NADH is also supported by ionic forces between arginine (R99) and the pyrophosphate groups.
