  • Title: Kinetic formulations for the oxidation and the reduction of glyoxylate by lactate dehydrogenase.
    Author: Lluis C, Bozal J.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1977 Feb 09; 480(2):333-42. PubMed ID: 13838.
    Abstract:
    Chicken liver lactate dehydrogenase (L-lactate : NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.27) irreversibly catalyses the oxidation of glyoxylate (hydrated form) (I) to oxalate (pH = 9.6) and the reduction of (non-hydrated form) (II) to glycolate (pH = 7.4). (I) attaches to the enzyme in the pyruvate binding site and (II) attaches to the enzyme at the L-lactate binding site. The oxidation of (I) (pH = 9.6) is adapted to the following mechanism: (see book). The abortive complexes, E-NADH-I and E-NAD+-II, are responsible for the inhibition by excess substrate in the reduction and oxidation systems, respectively. When lactate dehydrogenase and NAD+ are preincubated, E-NAD+- NAD+ appears and causes inhibition by excess NAD+ in the glyoxylate-lactate dehydrogenase-NAD+ and L-lactate-lactate dehydrogenase-NAD+ systems; the second NAD+ molecule attaches to the enzyme at the L-lactate binding site.
